    Agreed.
    Polarizing player, sorta reminds me of when Cespedes was available and some wanted him, others didn't.
    Of course Cespedes just went berserk from there and spiked his team as well, don't know if Bruce will go to that level, but maybe there's at least some of that magic in Bruce if LAD drops him into the 3 or 4 spot and moves JT/Adrian back 1 slot.
    Still gotta split Joc and Yasmani up in the lineup tho VS. RHP
    But yeah, Bruce is a better 3 spot play against LHP than JT is at this point, we can't have .179 in the 3 spot against LHP.

    Rumblings of a big 3-team extravaganza brewing with the Dodgers, Reds & a mystery team. Jay Bruce would land in LA when the dust settles


    GET YOUR POPCORN OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Bruce is a rental so the cost should not be very high........

    Let the 3rd team net us a late inning relief option that can take over for Kenley next year..perhaps KC or OAK..Davis or Doolittle

    Bruce looks especially attractive (in a manly way) with Adrian morphing into a slappy.

    Why do you want someone to take over Kenley.....why would MGT not lock up him up?

    I think the inference that Friedman doesn't like to pay big bucks for relievers... but in a case like this where Jansen is so good and such a known quantity he will re sign him.

    As long as he's not running into walls I'm cool with that because he is capable of doing it. Dude covers so much ground

    What do you think. An AL team being the "mystery" team.

    I'm hoping we're getting something in addition to Bruce. A reliever at least.

    6:59pm: Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig could be in play in the talks regarding Bruce, Stark tweets. He’d presumably be pushed out of a regular role if a significant corner outfielder is added, and Stark says that L.A. has been trying to move him in proposals with other teams.




    Attaboy, as foretold by me. Haha
    Gettem outta here, enough embarrassment already, put a team on the field that Chase Utley can be proud of
