Apparently Matt Kemp was cut from the Marlins and signed with a NL competitor.

Hope he has a good season or two left. I feel like he inevitably ends up as a DH but I’d love for him to retire a Dodger.

The family seeks legal guardianship, but are powerless to obtain it without his consent. Instead, an anonymous person posted the $500 bail, believing they were helping, but let him loose on the streets again.

“This has been going on for the last year and a half,’’ Morgan said, “it’s just that this is the first time it has become public.’’

Just two weeks ago, a similar incident occurred in Kentucky. Toles even spent a month in prison in Hong Kong during the holidays. He was wandering the streets after losing his passport, and was arrested for stealing food at a gas station. He was released after Morgan Toles obtained help from the U.S. Embassy. Yet, when he returned to states, he disappeared again.


God damn. Apparently he's been released and is just wandering around again :/.

Alvin Toles said that several of his son’s former teammates and current Dodgers players reached out last weekend. All-Star third baseman Justin Turner even offered to pay for Toles’ medical bills for treatment.


Among other things this makes me really hope they keep Turner. Personally, I don't give a shit if it makes the team actively worse to keep him I don't ever want him in another uniform.

Justin Turner is such a good wholesome guy. I've never understood why the Mets let him go...

He was such a good teammate, plus I loved his pie face celebrations. Then again, maybe us letting him go led to him having that chip on the shoulder.

I feel bad for Toles though, he seems like he has really just lost his way. So sad to see man.

Toles listed his address as the Streets of Key West.

Absolute heart-breaker man..

Turner has been so helpful to the LA community during this pandemic, it really made me like him more.

Too late to edit my last post.

David Price has opted out of 2020.

Kinda lame, should they play a season and enter the post-season I hope he could be the Price of 2018. Oh well.
