The Dodgers have quite the busy weekend, as they play split squad games both today and tomorrow. Today, the Dodgers make two trips, one to Scottsdale to face the Giants, and the other to Surprise to face the Royals, who have old friend Wilson Betemit starting at third base.
Don Mattingly will manage the Dodgers in Surprise against the Royals, while Albuquerque Isotopes manager Lorenzo Bundy will take the managerial reins in Scottsdale.
