    Boom spanks with the hot take!!!

    Urias not ready
    Alvarez can't throw strikes
    Behuler will be on limited innings
    Ohtoni is a a bitch that wants to play for a non contender
    Archer is a pipe dream from 2015
    Darvish won't be a Dodger but he's still a legit Ace that shit the bed at the wrong time.

    I actually think he is damaged goods, and would ship him to Miami in a package for Stanton in a hot minute
    Eh....probably more command than tossing strikes, but he is 21, he can get there.
    True, but every year one of our pitchers gets injured, so realistically there will be a need for a limited inning pitcher to pair up with Ryu.
    Yeah, that is just hear say, but you still go after the guy none the less.
    Again maybe but MGT has the prospects to get the Rays to talk.
    You got it, Shit the bed at the wrong time.......that is enough for me to say NO.

    Happy birthday to the Wild Horse Yasiel Puig!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Tyler Chatwood seems to have set the minimum market for a starter which could prove unfortunate for the other clubs trying to get a starter this off-season. Yikes!!!

    With 2 TJ surgeries on his resume I'm surprised the FUCKTARDS didn't spooge all over the ravine and outbid Theo....

    Yeah, sounds like 4 innings in winter ball. Guess they’re betting on athleticism

    Weren't the Angels trying to trade for him? I think it's hysterical how the non LA team always whiffs on the guy they really want and then make stupid fucking moves in haste.

    Before we traded him the Dodgers sent him to Licey to play CF. There was some thought but an odd move, lol.

    EDIT: Didn't read up enough lol

    Source: Dodgers have agreed to $205K deal with former Braves prospect Guillermo Zuniga. The RHP from Colombia was one of the 12 Atlanta international prospects granted free agency. http://atmlb.com/2AXJriE @MLBPipeline
