    Chris might be in that deal as well.
    It's not really up to the Dodgers. It's up to the Rays.

    actually it's up to Price because nobody's gonna give up a major package of top prospects for Price unless they feel he'll re-sign with them. free agency is around the corner for him. and we know who'd be the favorite to pay the most for his services and so does he.

    i never 100% buy the " sources say " stuff. but anyway it's Nick Cafardo reporting. likely won't be the last time we see it

    Cafardo has wanted Ethier on the Red Sox for like 50 years and counting now.

    seeing how the Cards struggle with left handed pitching, IMO, it just reinforces the rumor that LAD will go after David Price. decent chance that the Dodgers will have to go through STL in the future...adding Price would make sense. but that's obviously away from the lineup topic

    Don't want David Price at all for the cost. Somebody will give a lot for Price, don't want it to be us.

    I do, how about this:

    Ryan Ludwick LF
    14:$7.5M, 15:$9M mutual option ($4.5M buyout) 12 Million
    Brandon Phillips 2B
    14:$11M, 15:$12M, 16:$13M, 17:$14M (50 million left)

    FOR

    Andre Ethier CF
    14:$15.5M, 15:$18M, 16:$16M, 17:$18M, 18:$17.5M club option ($2.5M buyout) 70 million left
    Matt Magill SP
    Scott Van Slyke OF

    if we take Ludwick we ship 8 Million in cash if they keep Ludwick we ship 20 Million in cash

    Ludwick? Da fuck?

    Who posted that stat about only 4 players having a higher OPS+ since 2008 than Ethier?

    The Reds would not trade Brandon Phillips and Ryan Ludwick for Ethier, a C prospect and a 4th OF so it doesn't matter if the Dodger fans don't like it because the Reds would hang up.

    Gotta believe we are leading the chase for Guerrero. He isn't signed and we wouldn't sign him til we are out of the playoffs. Signing him sooner than that would be a very unneeded statement to Mark Ellis and that would be dumb. Boras said soo and is probably a reflection of us being in the playoffs. His previous agent was not licensed/approved by MLB so a change was necessary.
