Is Evelyn Lozada dating Carl Crawford?
Are Evelyn Lozada and Carl Crawford dating? That’s the rumor. Hip Hollywood reported this week that sources and eyewitnesses told them the reality TV star and ex-wife of Chad Johnson is dating the Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder.

Don Mattingly has his ‘Wu-Tang moment’, keeps it real, we’ll see if it goes wrong
Yesterday, Don Mattingly had what I call a “Wu-Tang moment”, inspired by the “When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong” skit on Chappelle’s Show.
Humorous? Yes, but what it mean to me is that Mattingly basically dropped all the fronts and simply went in on the Dodgers players and front office in surprisingly pointed comments.
“We’re in last place in the National League West...

Andre Ethier is Now Eminently Available
All winter, there were rumors that the Dodgers were open to trading Andre Ethier. All winter, the Dodgers declared that there was nothing to those rumors, and that they weren’t having second thoughts about the five year, $85 million contract they gave him last June. When spring training rolled around and Cuban import Yasiel Puig became The Hot New Thing, those rumors picked up...

Matt Kemp Sent Racist And Threatening Tweets Over His ‘Cheap’ Donation To OKC (Photos)

Dodgers' Rob Rasmussen establishes himself as legitimate pitching prospect
John Ely burst onto the scene with the Dodgers in 2010. The
team had acquired him and Jon Link from the White Sox for Juan Pierre. Elymania
spawned and lasted for longer than anyone could have expected. But it ended
seemingly as quickly as it began.
Fast forward nearly three years. Ely was coming off of a

Dodgers infielder Luis Cruz said he was available to play Sunday after being unavailable Saturday night because of a bone spur flare-up in his right elbow.
Cruz said he has three spurs in his throwing elbow, and they occasionally pinch a nerve.
