http://insidethedodgers.mlblogs.com/ - Inside the Dodgers is back again for 2008, as the team celebrates 50 years in Los Angeles. Check out ongoing thoughts, comments and observations from the Los Angeles Dodgers front office members, including General Manager Ned Colletti, Vice President
Auction is still going for ThinkCure ...KABC's bid is quickly growing and ours is somewhat stagnant right now. The latest thing to add is that you'll get a one-of-a-kind souvenir to take home - your name in the Dodgers' Daily Media Notes. Who knows, it might get read on the air, too.
Here's the lineup:
Pierre, CF
Kemp, RF
Kent, 2B
Manny, LF
Nomar, SS
Blake, 1B
Martin, 3B

Greg Maddux is coming back to the Dodgers. The deal is done and we hope to see him here in an hour or two.
UPDATE : That reminds me, the Think Cure auction is still going on this week and it just so happens that I spend about an hour of each day in the Dodger clubhouse, as would the fan who purchases the package to go Inside the Dodgers .
So, while I can't make any promises that ...

It's an off day, but it's really game on! The KABC ThinkCure auction package, which allows a fan to spend the day following around Josh Suchon, got a $375 bid last night during the Sunday Night Sports Final, which means "the other Josh" is now ahead of our Inside the Dodgers package . As promised, each day I'll be rolling out another perk of this online auction prize, with all the proceeds ...

As for the Inside the Dodgers online auction , in addition to being part of Joe Torre's pregame interview session and meeting the Dodger manager, you'll also get to stand on the field at Dodger Stadium during the national anthem, something a very small number of fans will ever get the chance to do. Right now, bidding is only at $240.
Here's today's lineup:
Kemp, CF
Ethier, RF

Please be sure to read below for more information about ThinkCure and the radio telethon we've got going on throughout the weekend until the end of tonight's game.
As I've mentioned, bidding for the online auction doesn't end until Aug. 24 and Inside the Dodgers has been issued a challenge by DodgerTalk. Josh Suchon, one of the hosts of DodgerTalk, wants to see if the package that allows ...

There's no better way to go into a weekend series than with a four-game sweep...you've got to like the way the team is playing right now with six weeks left to go in the season.
As I'm sure you've heard or seen, the ThinkCure radio telethon started this morning and will run through tomorrow night's game. There is tons of great programming on KABC 790, including a newly added three-hour ...

On behalf of the organization, we'd like to congratulate Joe Torre on passing Joe McCarthy on the all-time wins list as a manager.
This is the managerial equivalent of passing Frank Robinson on the all-time home run list, which is a pretty impressive feat. I think it got lost somewhat in the euphoria of last night's amazing game but it should not go unnoticed.
Here's hoping that in the ...

It's bobblehead night, and Joe Beimel's parents are likely going to be pregame guests on FSN Prime Ticket so if you can't come to the game, tune in.

Kent, 2B
Manny, LF
Blake, 3B
Nomar, SS (off the DL)
Martin, C

Every game from here on out is big, but seven games against the Phillies are Brewers loom particularly large, especially given the outcome of the last two days. Those would have been nice to have, but there's no real use worrying about it now. We've got to be two games better than Adam Dunn's D-backs from here on out...
Don't forget about tomorrow's 2 p.m. PT web chat with Larry Bowa ...

The Giants will be doing their 50th anniversary celebration at tonight's game and rumor has it, Barry Bonds will be on hand for, what I imagine will be, the loudest ovation we've heard in a long time.
Our season-long celebration of the 50th continues next weekend with the 90s luncheon and for anyone that went to the first three luncheons, these have been very well received. For more ...

With tonight's Opening Ceremonies in Beijing, China, it's worth a look at various Dodger ties to the Olympics over the years. Dodger Stadium hosted the 1984 Olympic baseball games; Dodger Special Advisor to the Chairman Tommy Lasorda managed the 2000 U.S. Olympic Team to a Gold Medal against Cuba; and the Dodgers participated in the first-ever Major League games on Chinese soil this past ...

A win today in St. Louis would be big, needless to say. Been pretty busy lately and hadn't had the chance to post much in depth, but will try to post more this weekend from SF.

Spent the morning at a Public Relations Society of America event where I was on a panel with my counterparts from the Lakers, Clippers, Angels, Sparks, Avengers, Ducks and Chivas USA. Pretty cool event that was held at Angel Stadium, where one of my mentors, Tim Mead was the host. It's always cool to hear best practices from the other leagues and learn a little something from people who ...

Sorry I never got the chance to post earlier today...but how 'bout that ninth-inning comeback? Here's hoping we can find a way to pull this one out. What a win that would be.

For anyone who grew up in the 80s, today's luncheon was undoubtedly a huge success, as Fernando, Sax, Welch, Leary, Garvey, Russell, Cey, Monday, Mota...well, how 'bout just posting a photo so you can see all the guys that were there. There was even an appearance by Diamondbacks' coach Kirk Gibson. You can check out the whole photo gallery from the event.

Dodger Stadium is buzzing like I haven't seen in quite some time. Tonight's game is now sold out and while there's tickets for tomorrow and Sunday still available, I'd bet there won't be for long. We had about 150 media members on the field for Manny's first media availability and needless to say, it's been an interesting 30 hours or so.
Guillermo from Jimmy Kimmel seemed to dominate a lot ...
