    Inside the Dodgers: One of the 2018 World Series teams is bad, and it’s not the Dodgers
    Editor’s note: The following story is from today’s Inside the Dodgers newsletter. To receive the newsletter in your email, sign up here.
    Dave Dombrowski, the general manager of the Boston Red Sox, sat down with a local sports-talk station last week to announce he isn’t blowing up his team’s roster. Ostensibly this has been a legitimate question for the defending World Series champs. The Red Sox have played 22 “real” games since last October. They’re 9-13

    For weeks, this pick has seemed like a sure thing. Now, just days before the draft, the rumor mill is spinning. Could the Cardinals trade down? Would they pick Nick Bosa? Don’t l

    Left out: Dodgers maximize Joc Pederson’s production by minimizing exposure to lefties
    Joc Pederson is a man in a box.
    An important, productive piece of the Dodgers’ lineup against right-handed pitching, Pederson has an 1.105 OPS this season and is one of the first three players in the National League to reach double digits in home runs (along with MVP candidates Cody Bellinger and Christian Yelich).
    When the Dodgers face left-handed pitching, however, Pederson doesn’t play. He just doesn’t.

    Warriors continue to clamp down on Clippers’ Danilo Gallinari
    LOS ANGELES — The Warriors have made life heck on Danilo Gallinari.
    The Clippers have been clear about their need to get Gallinari going; conversely, top-seeded Golden State understands that as Gallo goes, so go the Clippers.
    And so the two-time defending NBA champs have focused much of their substantial defensive energy on slowing the Clippers’ normally steady scorer, shading defenders his way, quickly sending help, using their great length to impede his progress.
