Nightengale also reported that the Dodgers' "top priority" remains a trade for Indians shortstop Francisco Lindor, I don't understand. The Dodgers weren't another MVP away from going to the WS. They need a manager to make logical decisions and a bullpen that can close out a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENINCH Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Let's get a salary cap going in baseball so we don't have to see the same 5-8 teams picking up all the best free agents each offseason. Who's with me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So is team control and arbitration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because most acknowledge that MadBums delivery and deception will allow him to play into his mid thirties and beyond with an absolute worst case scenario of being a key bullpen guy. Though the structure of it is a bit funky. That said I think Donaldson for 4 years isnt all that crazy, especially for an AL team.

Justwinning Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I honestly don't think the Dodgers need to make any drastic moves. Situational baseball has been our achilles heel (and trotting out Kershaw on short rest SMH). I'm reluctant to trade Seager since I think he'll bounce back to being the Seager of old. Last year he was coming back from 2 big surgeries. I'm hoping we can bring back Ryu and then see what we need to upgrade at the deadline.

He has always relied on delivery and deception. There might be some #'s that decline but not everything. his shoulder injury from the accident takes time to recover from but now that he's 2+ years removed he's getting healthier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What, have these billionaires who own the sports franchise spend money on the franchise to ensure it's competitive rather than just make money and have the taxpayer subsidize their investment? That's CRAZY TALK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could easily trade for a superstar but continuing to build from within sets them up for a 90’s Braves type run of consistent winning.
