    Dodgers just loading up on some emergency starter depth. We lost Fife and red Patterson is hurt too I believe so even if we signed one more starter, Zach Lee, Bolsinger, and Frias are next in line for spot starts and it's important to have depth there cause you're gonna need more then 5 starters in a year but there's only so much you can do to get quality 6,7,8 starters

    Happy 30th birthday :laports96: Justin Turner. What an amazing pick up he was and I hope he gets some big cash during arbitration.

    Hard to repeat what he did last year, but it's not like it'll be a Luis Cruz level drop off next season. He'd have to really suck to reach that level

    Hanley Ramirez is in "advanced talks" with the Boston Red Sox. They want both him and Pablo Sandoval.

    Gross. You just know Hanley will play out of his mind for Boston.

    Can Peralta possibly be it for correcting the BP disaster we currently have? Please, tell me it's not ; there's some pretty good shit out there. WTF?
    So far, these guys in NerdCo can kiss my spotty ass.
    Just how far are we looking to the future? What are we, Futurama now? One year spend like a Yankee mogul, the next, get guys never heard of.
    Fucking team is bipolar.
    Being losers comes in so-o-o many forms.
    We'll try 'em all before we're done, I think.

    so where do we go from here? I always figured we'd make at least 1 big splash this offseason, with that potentially being Hanley re signing.

    so now what? don't sign anybody big? Scherzer? Moncada?

    i really don't even know why these kind of questions are coming up right now..it's not like we haven't known for weeks that Hanley wasn't re-signing with the Dodgers. i mean other than finding out his destination, there's nothin to see here..the Dodgers' needs are still the same..options are likely still the same.

    Trades. One of the young Cubans. There are a lot of different ways they can go. With Hanley gone, maybe they can finally get off their butts and do something.

    the only young Cuban we have that has any value whatsoever is Puig, and he is pretty much untouchable.

    Sounds like the Pads, Braves, and maybe Giants if Pablo goes elsewhere are the favorites for Tomas (and he is an OF pretty much), and it is much too early to know anything on Moncada at this point.

    As long as Pablo leaves SF, i'll be happy. Guy is way too clutch in the playoffs

    I'm pretty sure he'll torment the shit out of us if the Pads get him. Oh yeah.

    We should sign him. We need to replace Hanley's bat. And Sandoval can play 3B unlike Hanley.
