Memorabilia from Former Brooklyn Dodger Cookie Lavagetto at Steiner Auctions


Steiner Sports is currently running an auction that includes various items from the estate of former Dodgers infielder Harry "Cookie" Lavagetto. There's a bunch of stuff from his coaching days, but there are also some goodies from his time in Brooklyn. One of which is featured above. (auction link)

What you see is a business card that was made for Lavagetto by his teammates/peers - no doubt honoring him for his play in the field and leadership in the clubhouse.

2017 Topps Now -- #401 -- Justin Turner's Walk-Off Single


Justin "The Animal" Turner played hero last night when he grounded a seeing-eye-single through the left side of the infield to propel the Dodgers towards victory. It was the fifth Dodger win in a row and 71st victory this season -- best in the Majors.

Blog Kiosk: 7/27/2017 - Dodgers Links - Some Odds and Ends


I've seen numerous captions to photos similar to the one above; including "Hail Orange Jesus", but I prefer using "The Orange Justinian".

Now, hear me out. It's like mixing Orange Julius (one of my favorite all-time mall drinks) with the Byzantine emperor Justinian the Great (known for trying to revive and unite an aging empire and setting up a basis of laws still relevant today).

Okay, so that's a stretch and a bit dumb. But, do you know what isn't dumb? Hear these words from the man who has been an important leader for the club, via Rowan Kavner at Dodger Insider:
“We just don’t go away,” Turner said, drenched in Gatorade. “It doesn’t matter how big a hole we get in.”
Those are definitely the words that we of the Dodgers Empire can live by.
