The 2025 Rangers have been good at everything except the one thing they’re supposed to be best at: Hitting. On a problem that has vexed team officials for the better part of two years, and the sobering numbers behind it … espn.com/mlb/story/_/id…
Eight days out from the trade deadline, a detailed look at where all 30 teams stand. Who’s all-in and all-out, who still hasn’t figured out their tack and what are the prices on the biggest names available. All that and more, free and unlocked at ESPN: espn.com/mlb/story/_/id…
The Dodgers’ bullpen reached what its manager hopes is rock bottom last night. … espn.com/mlb/story/_/id…
Dodgers reliever Tanner Scott said an MRI on his left forearm/elbow revealed just inflammation and that he did not sustain any ligament damage. He is confident he will pitch this season.
Some dude wore a Shohei Ohtani jersey to the ballpark, brought his glove, sat in the left-field bleachers and caught a Shohei Ohtani home run ball. Man is psyched. Ohtani has 36 on the year and has homered in four straight games for the first time in his career.
If you're a Dodger fan looking for good news tonight: Freddie Freeman is alive and unharmed.
Dodger fans have become exasperated with this bullpen.
From Dave Roberts: Tanner Scott is feeling “much better” today than he did last night, but the Dodgers are still waiting for Dr. Neal ElAtrrache to finish analyzing his MRI results. He is going on the injured list, as was expected, and Alexis Díaz is here to fill in.
David Stearns yesterday said he will be "active" in the trade market for bullpen help. He indicated adding elsewhere is less likely. espn.com/mlb/story/_/id…
Carlos Correa came about a foot -- a foot! -- from tying this game with a three-run homer. Instead, the Dodgers win for the third time in 13 games.
Pitching tomorrow, for the team with the best record in baseball, with a 12th consecutive win possible …

Shohei Ohtani's sixth start: 3 IP 4 H 1 ER 1 BB 3 SO His fastball velocity was down a tick, his sweeper lacked depth, and the Twins had seven batted balls that traveled more than 95 mph against him. But the results were pretty good. Ohtani's ERA, through 12 innings: 1.50.
Freddie Freeman, who took a pitch to his left wrist yesterday, is in the Dodgers’ lineup.
