They option Edwin Uceta to OKC
The Dodgers made a move ahead of their series-opening game against the Padres, as they recalled outfielder Zach Reks from Oklahoma City. In the move, the team optioned reliever Edwin Uceta.
Reks, 27, will be making his major-league debut whenever he enters a game for the Dodgers. That’s always awesome to see, so an early congrats to Reks!
The outfielder has been great in AAA this year. In 32 games, Reks has a slash...

The Dodgers will have a player in nearly every category likely advance to the second phase of voting
The latest All-Star voting update dropped on Monday, and there aren’t really any drastic changes to the results. Max Muncy still is the leading vote-getter among National League first basemen. He’s the only Dodgers player currently leading the way.
However, every position except catcher features a Dodgers player that would...

The third of six meetings between LA and SD in 2021
Back in April, the Dodgers and Padres met seven times in 11 days in a pair of electrifying series, befitting the presumed two best teams in the National League. But a lot has happened in the eight weeks since.
Petco Park is the setting for the third meeting between the Dodgers and Padres this season. The anticipation of the matchup remains piqued, with ESPN nationally televising the Monday and...

5 wins in 6 games for a second straight week, setting up another showdown series in San Diego
The Dodgers took advantage of the soft part of their schedule — playing three last-place teams in the last two weeks — winning 10 out of 12 games. That included two series wins last week over the non-last-place Phillies and somehow-worse-than-last-place Diamondbacks.
Pitching was the name of the game for the Dodgers last week, even keeping them in the game...

They’ve been favored in 150 straight games
For those who are involved in betting, this might blow your mind. As of right now, the Dodgers aren’t the betting favorites to win tonight in San Diego. If that line closes, it will be the first time in 150 games — including the postseason — that the Dodgers aren’t the betting favorites.
Depending on which sports book you use, the odds could be different. However, the Dodgers are currently +110 on...

Things got interesting late in the game
This game got too close for comfort, as the Dodgers nearly blew an eight-run lead. Luckily they pulled through, pulling out the 9-8 victory to give LA the sweep over the D-Backs.
It took a couple innings to heat things up, but the Dodgers piled on all nine of their runs over the course of innings 3-5. After a leadoff strikeout, Chris Taylor and AJ Pollock each reached base to start the rally. Justin Turner then...

His velocity was down across the board today
Following Sunday’s win over the D-Backs, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told the media that Tony Gonsolin dealt with shoulder soreness after his last start. Being cautious, he removed Gonsolin after only 46 pitches.
“I didn’t want to push him too much,” Roberts said. “So getting him into that fourth inning was a really nice job by him.”
Prior to the game, Roberts said that he was expecting Gonsolin...

White was sent down after allowing two hits and a run, plus two inherited runners that scored, in four batters faced on Saturday. It was White’s first appearance in eight days.
