Really hope Justin Turner finds his way back to the Dodgers in some capacity when his playing days are over. It still feels so wrong seeing him in any other jersey.

Now is as good a time as any to remind everyone that the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City (Negro Leagues Baseball Museum) exists to tell a deeply important American story -- one that is ultimately about triumph. Our history, good and bad, is all we have. Learning it is our duty.

I don't care what your politics are, this whole saga is so disgraceful. The digital equivalent of the people who threw black cats onto ballfields where Robinson played. History is history. Our past has never cared about our present comfort.

Decided to put my money where my mouth is and signed up for the 2026 LA Marathon this morning. It'll be my 11th marathon overall but my first since 2015. I have no idea if I can still do this in my old age, but I'm looking forward to the challenge. LFG!

Hit nearly 28 miles of running this week. Not earth-shattering by any means, but more than I’ve run in a single week for several years. Progress. Four months until Long Beach 13.1. Nine months until LA 26.2.

I love the Dodgers, but I'm so disappointed in their silence. The WH visit hurt, but I excused that as players' choices. What's happening in Los Angeles isn't about the players. It's about the city & residents who've loved the team through thick & thin. Where's that love back?

With his walk-off homer Wednesday, Will Smith moved atop the National League batting average leaderboard at .333 (just above Dodgers teammate Freddie Freeman at .332). The last catcher to win a batting title was Buster Posey in 2012.

Ketanji graduated magna cum laude from Harvard. You dropped out of community college to cosplay as a fascist. “Diversity hire” is what racists say when a Black woman earns something they never could.

At one point this season the Dodgers were kind of underwhelming. But now they have MLB's best record (52-31) despite a flurry of SP injuries. If they have a healthy Tyler Glasnow, Blake Snell, and Shohei Ohtani in their rotation come October, do other teams even have a chance?

The California AG opinion saying fantasy sports are illegal is wrong and lacks common sense. Just like in NY fantasy sports fans can help override a terrible opinion. Use the link below to contact your legislator in CA. thefsga.org/fsga-statement…

Among NL hitters, Will Smith ranks: - 1st BA (.325) - 1st OBP (.423) - 2nd BA w/ RISP (.373) - T-2nd OPS (.566) - 7th SLG (.543) ...all while playing the toughest position in the game. He won't get a real shot at MVP, but he sure better get some down-ballot votes. #dodgers

Assuming the Dodgers' rotation stays healthy, it'll be interesting to see what they do starter-wise in the postseason. It feels like Kershaw has earned the right to pitch, but can you start him over any of Ohtani, Glasnow, Snell, Yamamoto? Can't put him in the bullpen, right?

Paul Martinez (@paulmroto) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Hot take: Shohei Ohtani out of the bullpen in the playoffs makes a ton of sense. With Yamamoto/Snell/Glasnow/Sheehan all healthy & pitching well, Ohtani becomes more valuable as a late-inning reliever, esp. since he won't exceed 5 IP as a starter. Give me your counterpoints.
