Dodgers Roster All Set

Ok so Dodgers fans, why wheep over the McCourt verdict? It's going to be in the courts for awhile and I don't forsee a resolution anytime soon. As for what the Dodgers are doing, they are making moves.

Now that Vicente Padilla-el asesino and Tony Gwynn Jr. have been signed, there are now 39 total players on the roster.

Who is going to be that 1 player? I am banking on some Rule 5 magic. There are a ton of players available and for cheap amounts of money.

As far as the moves made, do I like the big signing of Uribe?

Yes, as long as they can get at least 2 good years from him. Even 18HR will add power to the position.

Barajas signing? Good and bad, but he loves LA so he should do well.

Is AJ Ellis the future? His ability to throw out runners is very low, so we'll see.

Lilly? An awesome signing.

Garland? He has 131 career wins...why not and plus he eats innings.

We do have so more work to do, but the roster is set. Gwynn will add speed to left field. That should help considering Gibbons is not the best fielder.

Peace, I'm Out Go Blue!

Lilly's bloom in April

Hello Dodger Fans,

A start to the off season has just begun with a nice warning shot to the rest of the NL West. Ted Lilly has a greed to terms on a nice deal with the Dodgers. With a 7-4 starting record after the trade from the Cubs, the Dodgers look to fortify their starting rotation of Bills and Kershaw. I am optimistic that Lilly will be a nice option for the 3rd, 4th or 5th spot. No way, the Dodgers get Cliff Lee, but if Frank McCourt gets his wish and takes the team over and gets a new TV deal, then the Dodgers have a chance of getting a left fielder and maybe another starter.

Obviously, there is a lot of work to be done, but matching up and playing better baseball will be key in beating the Giants and Rockies next year. Notice I didn't mention the Padres who are being dismantled as we speak!
