    Maybe this will rejuvenate him.

    He has given absolutely no effort all year long in Philadelphia

    he played his college ball at UCLA so maybe when he comes to LA he will actually give 100% effort and play with some pride.

    Thank you! People here are lazy and don't understand things like this.

    Same thing in the Papelbon thread. They remembered a couple of bad seasons, and never realized the guy was having an All-Star year.

    Guys often get a second wind when they get trade from a bad team to a contender. This could be the year the Dodger break through

    might as well bring up corey seager he might be the spark they need let him play 3rd Turner obviously cant handle it everyday .... They are going to try and get Utley "work at 3rd" its a little late in the game isn't It to switch a dude from 2nd to the hot corner. baseball is funny they act shocked when alberto callaspo has no power and hits 260. that's who the dude was when he was with the halos basically his whole career. Trading Uribe for that bum was retarded. Somebody aint making the best decisions that needs to be making the Right decisions.

    $300M payroll and got Rollins and Utley playing middle infield. Would have been great if this was 2007 though.

    yep. It looks like the Dodgers front office is taking notes from the Yankees.

    and on the other the Atlanta Braves seem to be taking notes from the Oakland A's. (Trade every good player who comes thru the organization)

    well for one Kimbrell was VERY important. Perhaps the best closer in baseball.

    Justin Upton was good.

    Alex Wood was a promising young pitcher.

    Juan Uribe was helping them win games.
