  • Via Mike Oz at Big League Stew, "Read a letter Jackie Robinson sent Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in 1962".  WOW!  
  • This is awesome and hilarious.  Via JP Hoorntra at Inside the Dodgers, "How former Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda introduced the manager of the San Francisco Giants".  At the Professional Baseball Scouts Foundation dinner this past weekend, Tommy introduce a Giant in a way only Tommy could.  
  • The Dutch Card Guy shares his 2013 Triple Threads Clayton Kershaw card that Topps just delivered.  It was a redemption, and it's a great looking card.
  • Jay Blue at Grading On the Blue writes, "Los Angeles Dodgers Winter League Report: Part 1, Hitters".  It's a nice report on how some of our prospects are doing.
  • Tim Brown of Yahoo Sports updates us on the Hanley Ramirez discussions, now that the Kershaw's talks have been concluded.  Via twitter:



"At the end of the day I just want to be here. I like the place, I love the clubhouse. This is where I want to be," Guerra said. "I can control a little bit, so whatever I can control and come in the right mind frame. At the end of the day you have to throw strikes."
“The number-one thing that our crew is, is patient,” he said. “We are very patient in what we do. Our guys probably won’t be getting a whole lot of sleep. I know I won’t be getting a whole lot of sleep.”
