They wouldn't be shopping Peavy would they? Also, has Santana gotten fed up with his new home? I would love to know what kind of fire sale the Padres will be having.

Yeah, I know it's not very original. However, it does follow in your string of other "Free ____". So it has tradition on its side. Besides, having Andy wasting away down in Las Vegas is an absolute crime considering how badly the Dodgers need some power in their line-up. Not saying I want to kick Blake DeWitt out of his job. But Andy could probably catch some time at SS and 2B and still get 10 or 12 at bats a week. How about something like “Free Andy LaRoche.” Yeah, I know it’s not very original.

Some that come to mind: 1) Lose Bennett (like, pretend he never played for us but visited the dugout a couple of time); 2)Lose Sweeney (like, send him to the store before a road trip and leave without him); 3) Give Larry Barnes a shot at the bigs - it's always nice to see a guy who has spent about 10 years in the minors get at least a short time in the show, and he does seem to have matured as a hitter.
