From Dylan Hernandez at the LA Times: Infielder Tony Abreu is expected to be called up today from triple-A Albuquerque and right-hander Ronald Belisario threw a scoreless inning for Class-A Inland Empire in what Manager Joe Torre said would probably be the last game of his minor league rehabilitation assignment. Eric Stults was pulled from his start in Albuquerque on Thursday night after only three innings, a sign that he could be promoted to replace Jason Schmidt as the Dodgers' starter in San Francisco on Monday. Stults, who was in the rotation until a sprained thumb landed him on the disabled list on May 31, bumped fists with teammates and waved at Albuquerque Manager Tim Wallach as he exited the game.

BRAVES 2, DODGERS 1 (10) Clayton Kershaw/Kenshin Kawakami was stellar tonight, holding the Braves/Dodgers scoreless over seven innings and allowing only two/four hits.

This Isn't Funny Anymore

For a while, it was actually entertaining to watch Jason Schmidt attempt to get major league hitters out with a combination of smoke and mirrors, but the novelty is beginning to lose its edge for me. At first, it was like watching Prince Fielder run or Adam Dunn play defense, but i'm almost embarrassed for him at this point.Note: I would watch a 30 minute game show that consisted...

Game 110 Thread: Aug 7 vs. Braves, 7p

Chad Billingsley (11-6, 3.82) vs. Jair Jurrjens (9-8, 2.85). COMMENTS: Last night's tumultousness helped to perpetuate the alternating win-loss pattern the Dodgers have been holding for the past seven games. Both starters are eager to prove they can go longer than five innings in tonight's rematch of last Sunday's matchup, Jurrjens without getting shelled and Billingsley...

MLB fines Brewers' Fielder, Dodgers' Mota

Milwaukee Brewers star Prince Fielder and Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Guillermo Mota have been fined for their run-in this week. Major League Baseball will not suspend them. The amounts of the fines were not disclosed Thursday. Mota hit Fielder in the ninth inning of a 17-4 win Tuesday night at Dodger Stadium, presumably as payback for Milwaukee's Chris Smith...

Braves' turn for late drama in L.A.

Los Angeles - If Thursday's loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers left the Braves stunned by its abrupt ninth-inning reversal of fortunes, Friday's marathon win left them upset and angry early and tired and slightly mollified late. . . .

Dodgers-Braves: LA Wastes Kershaw Gem, Late Rally Falls Short in 10 Innings

Clayton Kershaw and Kenshin Kawakami locked up in a dandy of a pitching duel on Saturday night under the bright lights of Chavez Ravine, but Kelly Johnson stole the headlines with a game-winning home run in the top of the 10th inning the lift the Atlanta Braves to a 2-0 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers. Neither pitcher factored in the decision as both kept the opposing squad off...
