For this edition, let’s dive into the news surrounding the Los Angeles Dodgers.
For the Dodgers’ new front office, this could have been a coup. Dee Gordon is the most productive player in the major leagues, and the Dodgers are paying him. Check out the LA Times thoughts on him:
“The Dodgers so wanted to bolster their depth last December that they traded Gordon and pitcher Dan Haren — and the $12.5 million to cover their 2015 salaries — for four members of a supporting cast. The Dodgers flipped one of them, pitching prospect Andrew Heaney, to the Angels for second baseman Howie Kendrick.
The Dodgers are happy with Kendrick, who has ably filled the middle of their lineup in the absence of the traded Matt Kemp and the injured Yasiel Puig. But take a look at Fangraphs’ WAR — the “wins above replacement” number that purports to be a catch-all for player value — and as of Saturday, Kendrick ranked No. 10 among second basemen, No. 112 overall.”

The Los Angeles Dodgers game has been postponed due to rain:
“Rain that has hovered around the Denver area for a week turned heavy again Saturday night, forcing a postponement of the Colorado Rockies‘ game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
The teams are scheduled to play Sunday afternoon but wet weather is forecast through the weekend. The Denver area is under a winter storm warning that could bring 5-10 inches of snow starting late Saturday.
“I’ve never seen weather like this in Denver,” Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. “I’ve lived here 21, 22 years and I’ve never seen it stick around for a week.”
