Nice to sweep any team, even if they are the worst in the NL. Starting pitching was really strong with our big three, Ryu, Kershaw, and Buehler. Last night put a punctuation mark (!) on our need for bullpen help and Barnes dropped under the Mendoza line.
Good move to give Bellinger a day off along with Verdugo.

Rick Armstrong, son of first man on the moon astronaut, Neil Armstrong, is being interviewed by the Astros television broadcast crew. He grew up in Cincinnati and is a life long DODGER FAN! Of course, the Astros telecasters had to bring up the 2017 World Series, but he handled it well. Very interesting interview as he talked about what it was like being a twelve year old kid and having your father walk on the moon.
Dodgers Outright Rocky Gale

The Dodgers have outrighted catcher Rocky Gale off the 40-man roster, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com tweets. The move drops the club’s 40-man roster to a total of 38 players.
Gale, 31, went 2-for-15 in a brief stint with the Dodgers earlier this season but has spent the bulk of the season in Triple-A Oklahoma City, where he’s batted .250/.303/.370 in 109 plate appearances. He’s spent the season as the primary backup to top catching prospect Will Smith in Triple-A, but the recent promotion of fellow top catching prospect Keibert Ruiz to Oklahoma City has further reduced Gale’s role on the roster.
Gale has appeared in 22 big league games between the Padres and Dodgers, though he’s received just 37 plate appearances in that time (and hit .108/.108/.189). The former ninth-round pick is a lifetime .277/.315/.359 in parts of nine Triple-A seasons.
