    Time to place your bets. Will we trade Joc for Young? Will we trade someone for the reasons "he pays the game the right way"? Will we make a worthless Victorino type deal that will actually cost us games?

    Or will we make more trades like the Nolasco one? Solid trades using our cash as leverage instead of prospects.

    Sure he will... He'll trade a prospect for some middle reliever... But as it happens every year, the super prospect he'll give up wont ever play to his potential...

    he'll trade ethier, withrow, seager, z lee and pederson to the phils for utley and c lee
    on the plane ride here utley will have a panic attack and never play again
    and cliff lee will severely pull his groin... self-inflicted

    Thanks to Ned I suffer from Trade Deadline Anxiety. The only cure is for Ned to get fired. Please pray for me as we get closer to the trade deadline.

    I voted yes, although the decision was a little tougher than other years. With the aid of taking on contracts, Ned's throwing in of the Carlos Santana's of the world has made him seem almost... competent lately. Still, just can't help but think Rich Aurilia is going to be spelling Hanley in the second half.

    I can totally see us getting Michael Young instead of Utley... but I'm hoping this is a #WholeNewNed.

    You guys are all stupid Fkags.

    This is a smarter Ned now with money in his pockets. He's gonna make a great trade or no trade at all.

    I love this scenario...as long as Utley isn't at 2b for us. If that's what it takes, then so be it.

    I bet he'll make three moves in total, including the Nolasco one, and we'll love 2, hate one.

    My question is how long is his leash? If the dodgers dont make the playoffs is he out? World series or bust for him with this payroll?

    I guess; but at the end it's up to the players to execute. Can't really blame him for Kemp/Ethier struggling and Hanley/Crawford missing a bunch of time.

    probably playoffs or bust, given that playoffs are a shit show and any ones game once you are in.

    I don't think Kasten will allow it to happen.
