DODGERS RUMORS & GOSSIP
Los Angeles Dodgers look for the sign of the four
If the Dodgers are going to turn things around this season, it may come down to the number four. As in players, that is.
Zack Greinke’s return to the rotation is one major step towards the Dodgers turning the season around.
The Dodgers $147 million man, Zack Greinke, returned to the rotation Wednesday night for the first time since April 11th and pitched well in the Dodgers 3...

A Matt Kemp Allen & Ginter Auto.
A quickie today on a recent pickup of the most excellent variety. Everything about this transaction and the card itself is great, and I couldn't be happier.Mattycakes! An on-card Allen & Ginter autograph of my favorite player for a relative bargain (under a blaster)? You know I jumped at that. It's a wonderful addition to my Bison PC, and marks Kemp John Hancock - of...
Greinke gets the win and RBI single
Before the game, two scouts were debating whether Dodgers right-hander Zack Greinke would risk swinging the bat in his return from a broken left collarbone.
One expressed doubt, but the other, possessing a better working knowledge of Greinke, chuckled at the idea the pitcher would hold back.
"He's got a bigger ego about hitting than he does about pitching," the scout...

Jonathan Sanchez and the Los Angeles Dodgers have reached an agreement on a contract pending a physical. Sanchez was released by the Pittsburgh Pirates earlier this month after he was wildly ineffective.
Sanchez posted a 11.85 ERA and 15/8 K/BB ratio in 13 2/3 innings for the Pirates. He also received a six game suspension for hitting Allen Craig of the St. Louis...
Hyun-Jin Ryu plays catch with young fan in stands
Hyun-Jin Ryu enjoys interacting with fans.
Even those in the stands.
Ryu, who met fellow Korean Psy earlier in May and gave the pop star his Dodgers jersey, plays catch with a young fan, with the name Deuce on his jersey, for about five minutes at a recent Dodgers game.
Deuce has a cannon. Ryu is pretty good, too.
Set your cute set phasers to stun.

Video Of The Week- Ryu Hyun-Jin Plays Catch With Fan
It’s not everyday a baseball fan gets to play catch with a professional baseball player. Well, one lucky Dodger fan nicknamed “Deuce” who often appears on the Dodgers’ vision boards during games got the chance to play catch with Dodgers’ pitcher Ryu Hyun-Jin. Ryu stood on the field and threw the ball into the left field bleachers where Deuce would catch it and fire it back...

Manny Ramirez slides somewhere between first and second
Disgraced former MLB slugger Manny Ramirez is making quite the impression in Taiwan. Watch good ole Manny slide about 15 feet short of second base while trying to break up a double play…
Scouting report: RHP Ross Stripling, Los Angeles Dodgers' prospect
After the first couple rounds of the MLB Draft, it’s pretty
much a crapshoot. Sometimes there are gems found later in the draft: Matt Kemp (sixth
round), Joc Pederson (11th round) and Matt Magill (31st round).
So, when the Dodgers drafted Ross Stripling in the fifth
round, not much was made of the selection.
In his brief career, he’s proving to the team and...
MADE THAT KID'S DAY
Hyun-Jin Ryu plays catch with young fan
A week ago, we gave you Matt Kemp making a young fan's day by giving him damn near his entire uniform. This week, it's pitcher Hyun-Jin Ryu, playing catch with a young fan in the stands at Dodger Stadium. Does it get any cooler than this?
Down On The Farm: Week Of April 22 & 29 – Van Slyke, Pederson, Rasmussen, Sweeney, Seager
There were some eye-popping performances in the Dodgers minor-league system the last couple weeks. I got to see three of the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes games in person, which was awesome.
There are some guys below folks should keep eyes on this season. They could establish themselves as legitimate prospects with solid performances in 2013.

It's time: the Dodgers need to replace Brandon League with Kenley Jansen
OK, it might be time for the Dodgers to make a change. I'm not talking about firing Don Mattingly (yet), I'm talking about switching closers.
I wasn't against the Brandon League signing, even when everyone else seemingly was. I've stated that on multiple occurrences. I've never said he's better than Kenley Jansen, just that I was for his signing. Now...
Video: Matt Kemp talks about giving his jersey and cleats to a young dying fan
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp did a wonderful thing for a dying boy in San Francisco on Monday.
On Monday, Dodgers third base coach Tim Wallach informed Kemp that there was a young man in attendance at AT&T Park that is a huge Dodgers fan.
He also lists Kemp as his favorite player.
