Los Angeles Dodgers
Originally the Brooks, the Atlantics and the Bridgegooms in minor league competition, they became a Major League Baseball team and joined the National League in 1890. They were known as the Superbas and later the Robins before they officially became the Dodgers. The Dodgers are famous for having Jackie Robinson (the one who broke Major League Baseball's color barrier) on their team in 1947. They had moved to Los Angeles becoming the Los Angeles Dodgers for the 1958 season. This category is for questions about the players, the coaches, the records and anything else to do with the team.

How did the redsox and dodgers trade after deadline?
Waivers. The deadline for regular trades is July 31, after that teams can still trade for another month via the waiver wire. Teams place their players on "waivers" which enables other teams to claim those players. If a player is claimed, the waiving team has 3 days to do choose 1 of the 3 following options: arrange a trade with the claiming team, allow the claiming team to simply take the player and assume his entire remaining contract and salary, or pull him off of waivers and keep him. If no team claims the player within a certain period of time then he is considered to have cleared waivers, and his team can either move him to the minors or pull him off of waivers.
Waivers differs from the regular trade period in that you can no longer approach specific teams and suggest a trade; you can only deal with whichever team claims the player, and teams are given preference according to their record with the worst record getting priority. This rule allows teams in contention to effectively block trades to other teams in their division.
In this instance, LA was in 1st place when they claimed AGon, so SF - being a contender for the Western title - could have opted to claim AGon after learning he was claimed by LA, seeing as SF had the worse record. The downside here is the risk of potentially getting stuck with a player they do not want, need, or can't afford. Had SF claimed AGon in attempt to block him from going to LA, Boston could have just let him go, in which case, SF is now obligated to take the player they didn't actually intend to keep.
The bottom line is that the regular trade period gives you the ability to choose a team with players you want and then negotiate a trade. Trading via waivers forces you to deal with whichever team claims your player, and that team might not have players that adequately address your needs.

What is the value of a 1953 Brooklyn Dodgers yearbook?
From the 56 years span between 1950-2006 there are 119 different New York Yankees yearbooks. There are 85 different just in the 27 year period from 1956-1982, and there are three or more different for virtually every year in that 27 year stretch including five different from one year. Different publication include Jay publishing Co., official Yankees first editions, 2nd editions, 3rd editions, and revised editions. A 1963 New York Yankees yearbook is worth between $60.00 - $90.00. The second, and third editions (revised printed on the cover) are worth slightly more topping out at about $105. The third edition does not indicate that it is the third edition. The way to know is by checking the roster page. Dated Sept. 3 and added names like Jake Gibbs, and Tom Metcalf. First editions in the case of yearbooks normally sell for less because they are sold throughout most of the year, and more are available. The added editions are printed at the end of the season, and are more rare. I have included a link to a New York Yankees check list, and price guide. Keep in mind that condition is everything in putting a value on an item. With publications minor flaws could degrade the value a lot.

What is a 1958 Dodger's pin worth?
This ball would document the first year the ex-Brooklyn Dodgers would set up shop in Los Angeles. According to the collector's guide "Team Baseballs," your ball is worth $350, but this value can be greater or lower depending on players present - in particular the inclusion of Hall of Famers Walt Alston, Sandy Koufax, Don Drysdale, among others - as well as the all-important overall condition of the ball and Autographs. Other key factors include type of ball (is it an "Official National League" ball?), whether there are any "clubhouse signatures" (autographs signed for players by ballboys, attendants, etc), and number of signatures present. Stars' signatures were often signed by clubhouse attendants, so the authenticity of their autographs are a big factor in value. These factors, plus the authenticity of the all the significant signatures are the main variables in determining value.
