it could be debated as to whome was more valuable last year… manny or Juan…

just kidding, Juan was the worst dodger outfielder by far last year. Not that he had a bad season, he did terrific for us in a well times 3 weeks. However, that doesn’t me he wasn’t 4th outfielder material.

I still love the way the team is looking as long as Ned doesn’t blow it up with a dumb move. Just add Garland or Piniero to eat some innings, and maybe Bedard to eat some quality innings. I wouldn’t go past that in SP role though.

There is no way Kemp is being traded unless it is some sort of blockbuster deal.

I agree completely on signing Kemp now…but I wonder if the players would be reluctant to sign long term for a team that looks like it could be in flux with ownership issues.

mgrumsb may be speaking of this from mlbtraderumors:

There’s no mention of Kemp in the rumor, only in the comments section by Atlanta fans stating they’d only take Kemp or Ethier in a trade for Vazquez.

Remember, Vazquez has that no trade clause for NL and AL west teams. He’s not coming west. And I don’t think anyone within the organization is trading Kemp at this point. I have not seen any rumors regarding Kemp. All I;ve seen is the Dodgers linked to Brandon Phillips so far, trade wise anyway.

Could be debated. Regardless, I love how are outfield looks going into next year.

Now lets solidify that rotation. I would love to see us sign Padilla, Wolf, and one of either Bedard/Sheets (on a 1 year deal).

I think the nature of the 162 games season mandates having more than 5 starting pitching options. I wouldn’t even be against a 6-man rotation. Especially when 4 of the 6 will be relatively cheap (not Wolf or Kuroda)
