    Roy Oswalt had offers from several teams during the off-season. But the three-time All-Star pitcher decided to wait until the right situation came along before committing to his 12th major league season.

  5. Lightweight Dodgers lineup too heavy a burden for Clayton Kershaw

    Friday marked four years to the day that a sandy-haired Texan debuted at Dodger Stadium. It was a ballyhooed occasion for a ballyhooed pitcher, and he shined with a brilliant performance that his team capped with a close win.

  7. Dodgers' starting rotation is a startling second-best in majors

    C.J. Wilson was the ace of the Texas Rangers' pitching staff last season. When the Angels signed Wilson and slotted him into the No. 4 spot of their starting rotation behind Jered Weaver, Dan Haren and Ervin Santana, the debate raged as to whether the Angels might have a better rotation than the Philadelphia Phillies. The Dodgers let Hiroki Kuroda go because they could not afford him. They signed Chris Capuano and Aaron Harang, assembling a rotation perceived as Cy Young Award winner Clayton Kershaw and four innings-eaters in Capuano, Harang, Chad Billingsley and Ted Lilly. Yet, the Dodgers boasted the best record in the majors through Friday's games, primarily for two reasons; Matt Kemp and the starting rotation. The Angels' rotation has been solid, second-best in the hitter-heavy American League, as ranked by earned-run average. But the Dodgers' rotation has been spectacular, second-best in the major leagues, trailing only the Washington Nationals. The rotations of every major league team, ranked by ERA through Friday's games, with the names of the five pitchers who have started the most games for each team:

    ARLINGTON, Texas &#8212; This wasn't what slugger Mark Trumbo meant Saturday when he said the Angels need to &quot;come out a little angry" and play with a "figurative chip on our shoulder."
