    Or we could just exercise the option. Who knows though... Koufax would freak out if we did though, so I hope we do.

    It almost seems as if the schedule makers have no concern at all for the players, and try to make the most arduous, illogical schedule they can. I guess every team can site a rough, exhausting patch like we just went through (I don't know), but I just don't get it.
    Didn't they used to make geographical proximity at least a factor in the past?
    Now they just zig-zag anywhere and everywhere...and doesn't it cost way more money? You would think....

    ah yes, before interleague play and the unbalanced schedule
    manfred should eliminate interleague play altogether, retract the tampa and miami franchises, and go back to a balanced schedule

    from yesterday :yawn:

    By Jeff Todd [August 18, 2014 at 8:44pm CDT]​

    Dodgers GM Ned Colletti says that he is still interested in adding a bullpen arm and power bench bat to the roster, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports. The club has already added two right-handed starters this month, acquiring Roberto Hernandez and Kevin Correia.​

    Los Angeles surprised some by essentially holding firm at the July 31 non-waiver deadline, picking up only DFA’d second baseman Darwin Barney. Despite being tied to major names like David Price, the club declined to part with its top prospects to add a top player. Instead, Colletti elected to bide his time and see if any needs arose in August. “We don’t stop scouting after July 31, there’s just fewer choices,” said Colletti.​

    The Dodger bullpen, like its rotation, has seen its ranked thinned by injury. Chris Perez, Paco Rodriguez, and Paul Maholm (among others) are currently on the DL. As for the idea of a big bat, the current roster composition (with Juan Uribe and Hanley Ramirez out) includes the .497-slugging Scott Van Slyke but little else in the way of power options. (While Andre Ethier has shown plenty of pop at times in his career, he has slugged a meager .366 with only 4 home runs this year.) Of course, well-regarded youngster Joc Pederson is knocking on the door at Triple-A, where he owns a .301/.424/.572 line with 29 long balls.​

    The Greinke news sure put a damper on things.
