Draft Day!
Today is another opportunity for the Dodgers to find a diamond in the rough. It is Draft Day 2011 and the Dodgers are set be 16th out of the box. Will the experience and historical prowess of the franchise shine through? Can we steal a 6th rounder who can slug just like Kemp? I guess only time will tell.
To help the team along this journey are the brains behind the Blue curtain. Below is a pic from Ben Platt's twitter showing the Dodger crew behind this years draft.

Oh, and Tommy sent out his best wishes to all the hopeful prep ballplayers out there.

The surprise of many, Dee Gordon has been called up today and is expected to be the everyday SS, according to Dylan Hernandez.
Auto Collection: Hershiser Chrome Auto
What else can you say about the Bulldog? He was great as a Dodger hurler, and, considering the recent news that he has joined Garvey's ownership group, I think he would be an even better Dodger executive.This card is a 2004 Topps Chrome Uncirculated Orel Hershiser autographed card.

2011 Upper Deck SP Legendary Cuts Are Live
Upper Deck may not have a Baseball license, but that doesn't mean they are out of the game. They just released their first Baseball related card set this year to some excitement. The new boxes are called 2011 Upper Deck SP Legendary Cuts Baseball and they feature one autographed card per box, at over $200.00 per box. Here is a checklist. No doubt a high end product they includes everything from Hall of Famers and old-time ballplayers to US Presidents. The best cards sell for premium (huge premium, mind you), and multi-auto'd cards are highly desired. Check out some of Dodger related cards recently found on eBay, and a great Presidential autograph of Abraham Lincoln.
This card is pretty cool. It has autographs of Walter and Peter O'Malley.
This is a nice Don Drysdale auto card.
This is a 4 auto Legendary Quad Cut Signatures card of Carl Furillo, Pee Wee Reese, Johnny Podres and Clem Labine.
Here is another Legendary Quad Cut Signatures card with Johnny Podres, Don Drysdale, Clem Labine and Larry Sherry.
