Today’s spring training game against the White Sox will feature the Dodger debuts of Zack Greinke, Hyun-jin Ryu, & Peter Moylan, along with the lineups you see at right. (Alex Castellanos, center field!)
Sadly, you won’t be able to see it, because as we’ve been bemoaning all spring, FOX is broadcasting a disappointingly low amount of Dodger games in the final year of their contract. Even worse, this one isn’t being broadcast by Dodger English radio, though you can pick it up in Spanish on KTNQ 1020 or Chicago’s WCSR through MLB.com if you have the package.

If you do happen to have the MLB.tv package, then we have good news: the full schedule is now out, and there’s more Dodger baseball on TV this spring than we’d thought, once you include the several new broadcasts from opposing teams. Better, spring training has no blackout policy to worry about. In total, there’s 17 games available, which is just under half of the full 40-game schedule. By comparison, 27 of the 35 Yankee games will be available, which really just makes me want to get past this FOX contract as soon as possible.
