As the Dodgers look to improve on their 34-46 all-time record against the Angels (including 20-20 at Dodger Stadium), here are some links to peruse:
- Over on SB Nation Los Angeles, I looked at who's hot (Matt Kemp, Bobby Abreu) and who's not (Casey Blake, Jeff Mathis) for both the Dodgers and Angels
- David Golebiewski at FanGraphs looked at pitchers outhitting the competition this season, including Chad Billingsley and Clayton Kershaw of the Dodgers.
- In case you missed it earlier this week, I was a guest with Mat Gleason and Jim Gardner of Halos Heaven on HaloTalk Live on Tuesday.
- Jon Weisman, Tony Jackson, Mark Saxon, and Brian Kamenetzky had a Dodger/Angel roundtable podcast on ESPN LA.
- Bill Shaikin of the LA Times laid out several scenarios and possibilities that lie ahead for Frank McCourt and Bud Selig.
