Matt Kemp Lands On DL, Sands Recalled
The Dodgers iron man Matt Kemp has been placed on the disabled list with a strained left hamstring. In a subsequent move Jerry Sands was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque. Kemp, April's NL player of the month, was leading the NL in all three Triple Crown categories. On top of that, Kemp had played in a Major League high 399 games, last missing a game on August 18, 2009. That...

Kemp, Uribe Move to the DL; Sands, Herrera Head to LA
The injury bug continues to hit the Dodgers this past week, with Matt Kemp going on the DL with a strained left hamstring and Juan Uribe also going down with a left wrist injury that seems to be nagging him from last season.
The result is a bunch of newcomers for LA. In place of Kemp, the Dodgers brought up leftfielder Jerry Sands, who in 2011 over 61 games in LA batted .253...

Time for Jerry Sands to prove to the Dodgers he can still hit
Jerry Sands
Last year at around this time, Jerry Sands was a Dodger for nearly a month after a blazing start at Triple-A.
Fast forward one year: Sands did not make the club out of Spring Training and has obviously been surpassed by the recently recalled Scott Van Slyke.
Sands came up last season, gave Dodger fans some hope, struggled, was demoted and came back in September...

There Are 5 Of These Jerry Sands Obak Autos In The World. I Own 1 Of Them.
Every now and then I'll scour eBay listings in search of cheap and new Jerry Sands autographs. Sands quickly became one of my favorite Dodgers, perhaps because he's one of the only legitimate offensive prospects, and can alleviate the pain I've felt and will feel - and the soon-to-come inevitable yearnings to blind myself - if I have to watch a single game with James...

Sands hoping to build on strong fall with Dodgers
(Eds: Adds details, quotes.) Substitute teacher Jerry Sands is seeking something more permanent with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Sands, who was teaching everything from math to physical education to high school and middle school students in North Carolina just days before the start of spring training, has a chance to go from sometime to fulltime if he can prove to the Dodgers that...

A Bargain-Basement Jerry Sands Bowman Sterling Rookie Autograph.
Another cheap eBay purchase, another Jerry Sands autograph. I've been fortunate enough that the two have gone hand-in-hand a number of times thus far in my time collecting Jerry's John Hancocks. Hopefully that trend will continue. My latest Sands addition was scored for just 99 cents plus shipping:So shiny! Dirty scanner not withstanding. It's a "rookie" autograph...

Another Jerry Sands 2011 Topps Finest Rookie Autograph
The next couple of days around here will be big and important, so keep an eye out! Anyhoo, Jerry Sands autographs reel me in hook, line, and sinker.

An On-Card Jerry Sands XFractor Rookie Autograph
Not a terribly creative title, I know. Anyhoo, Jerry Sands needs to be starting next year. With Juan Rivera's ridiculous signing, it looks as though that will not happen, as of now. Regardless, I will continue to collect Jerry's cards when I can score them at a great price, and that's exactly how this awesome XFractor Auto - #'d 159/299 - came into my possession...

Did Jerry Sands make the necessary adjustments in 2011 to succeed in 2012?
Jerry Sands entered 2011 as a top Dodgers prospect and made his major league debut on April 18th to chants of “Jerry! Jerry!”, but on June 7th, 144 plate appearances later, he played his last game in a Dodgers uniform until he was recalled as part of the expanded rosters in September. Over those 144 plate appearances that spanned from April to June, Sands was underwhelming...
