A piece about how the Dodgers should be the Yankees of the west, Dodgertown, Kirk Gibson, and 1988. *Sigh*.

Dodger sign 16 year old Mexican left hander Julio Urias

I was a guest Monday night on the Phil Naessens Show, discussing the Dodgers' new additions and their impact on the team going forward.

Yahoo's Tim Brown tweets the Dodgers are interested in the Indians Right Fielder. I assume he'd play LF?

March is a ways off, but be on the lookout then. Former Dodger Talk host Josh Suchon is penning a volume on the 1988 Dodgers, due out in March. Follow the link above to read his blurb on it to whet your appetite.

The San Diego paper reported that prior to the pitch before he stole home, Everth Cabrera told Jerry Hairston Jr. he would do just that. Cabrera quoted Hairston as saying, "Go ahead and try it". If so, I bet Jerry handles it differently the next time a baserunner says this. Of course, it's possible there was confusion getting this story. If that quote actually came from the third-base coach, that wouldn't be interesting at all.
