CBSSports.com Fantasy Dodgers first baseman Adrian Gonzalez (neck) started for L.A. on Monday against Washington after he was removed for precautionary reasons from Sunday's game in the seventh inning.

May 13, 2013CBSSports.com Fantasy After feeling ostracized during the offseason when he was shed from the 40-man roster, Dodgers outfielder Scott Van Slyke is trying to earn the team's attention once again.

Sons of Steve Garvey MARLINS 5, DODGERS 4 Adrian Gonzalez hit a three-run homer in the first inning, but Ronald Belisario is horrible, resulting in our eighth loss in a row. Dodgers go 2-for-8 with RISP; Andre Ethier and Nick Punto each went 0-for-4 (the latter of which at least contributed a run), and Dee Gordon threw in a 0-for-3 just for the hell of it. We try to go fishing again tomorrow. However, it's totally possible that the Marlins will leave Los Angeles with the same number of wins as the Dodgers currently have (13). So maybe that's why I'm feeling like Luca Brasi.

Sons of Steve Garvey Not Adrian Gonzalez, but it might as well be. Those of you who saw last night's game saw that Adrian Gonzalez, one of the few Dodgers with a potent bat this year, left the game early after straining his neck attempting to make a play that probably should have been made by someone else. His failed attempt to catch a foul ball between first and home caused Gonzalez to fall awkwardly, particularly given the pratfall was done right in front of a standing AJ Ellis (as well as near Clayton Kershaw): LOS ANGELES -- Dodgers first baseman Adrian Gonzalez was removed from Wednesday's 3-2 loss again...
