Here’s your handy-dandy list of Dodgers (at least those on the 40-man roster) on Twitter:
Dodgers – @Dodgers
Todd Coffey – @ToddCoffey60
A.J. Ellis – @AJEllis17
Dee Gordon – @Skinnyswag9
Javy Guerra – @JavyGuerra54
Blake Hawksworth – @BlakeHawk425
Matt Kemp – @TheRealMattKemp
Josh Lindblom – @JoshLindblom52
James Loney – @JamesLoney_7
Justin Sellers – @SellBlock_12
I haven’t compiled the remaining feeds for others in the organization yet, but will try to do so for another post.
The Dodgers’ official team Twitter feed offers occasional contests with prizes, such as this.
Damon
Loney usually says dumb stuff. So if you like to read people saying dumb stuff follow him
Dave Pomerantz
His twitter is like a random sports cliche generator, which is fun in it’s own way.

How would one follow you damon?
Adam Luther
Will we continue to see Kemp in the 3 hole for the balance of the season?
Jon Weisman
That’s what Mattingly is telling reporters. Whether it always will stay that way, I don’t think we have any way of knowing.
Jason Ungar
you would think he would really have to struggle not to be..and he better not really struggle! :)
Jon Weisman
No, I would see it more as Mattingly deciding to protect Ethier by putting him back at 3, or something like that.
Jason Ungar
I thought of that Jon, as well as moving Loney into the 5 hole to go LRL, but I think Mattingly is smart enough to hit your best hitter 3rd and also just not mess with a good thing in Kemp
Jon Weisman
Tony Jackson’s Twitter feed recounts an epic debate between Dylan Hernandez and Jaime Jarrin over Maradona vs. Pele.

Looks like the game today will be rebroadcast on MLB Network tonight at 7, if my TV Guide listing is any indication. It’s not otherwise on here in SF, but I know LA PrimeTicket is doing it. Not sure whether that’ll be blacked out on my MLBTV or not. Guess I’ll find out!

I guess unsurprisingly, fangraphs has the Dodgers list as #30 in 2B power rankings: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/index.php/positional-power-rankings-second-base/
Jon Weisman
I was a bit surprised that our first basemen avoided a lower rating.
Those Fangraphs ratings are depressing.

Seriously… and at catcher too? http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/index.php/positional-power-rankings-catcher/ Can’t wait to see what awaits at 3B and SS… :(

Because there’s no substitute for proven veteran leadership, I would follow a random sports cliche generator.
Jon Weisman
The lead to Variety critic Peter Debruge’s review of “John Carter.”
http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117947193/
“Earth to Edgar Rice Burroughs buffs: “John Carter” is a dog. Actually, it’s more like a Calot, an ugly dog-like creature found only on Mars, characterized by its clumsy nature, spastic pacing and entirely too-eager-to-please personality.”
Terry Pruett
So…a thumbs down? :)
Jon Weisman
Ted Lilly’s first two batters go homer-double.
Jon Weisman
And Pill homers to make it 3-0.
Terry Pruett
Nice of Ted Lilly to throw a little BP for the Giants. Ahhhh…the 1st ST outing blues…..

News Flash: Dee Gordon is fast…also, water is wet
Derek TC
Hawk and Lindblom get old fast on twitter…

So, I just ponied up the $125 for MLB premium–I’m out of market and don’t get so see but 12 games out of the year–and after watching Ted Lilly and Juan Uribe in the top of the second I’m gonna see if I can get a prorated package for only when the good players play…
Derek TC
So you want a 4/5 refund?

And yet you still have him beat on wikipedia.
Jon Weisman
I’ve been asked a couple times if I were him. Then I asked him on Facebook if he had ever been confused with me. He said no.
KT
That’s because we know who the real deal is Jon :<)
