It's not about the big name free agents IMO. A lot of the great players don't hit free agency.Originally Posted by FrenchBlue23
A rich real estate developer would be risky, but yet, he wouldn't hesitate to sign those big name free agents.
Not necessarily.Originally Posted by Bigmike23

It really makes me wonder about the season ticket deal. Maybe im better off holding out until all of this is sorted out. Itd be purchasing somewhat blindly, not knowing whats inside the box.
sigh...
This is a pretty common misconception, because if you remember what actually happened:
Games 1-20: .425/.495/.598 1.093 OPS
Games 21-50: .244/.299/.283 .583 OPS
So if by "such a great job" you mean "had a killer hot streak for less than half of Manny's absence and was worse than ever for the majority of it," then yes - great job.

Yeah, I think i am going to stand pat and wait it out. The more I wait the less optimistic I feel about doing it this season, Im willing to wait it out though.
Its the uncertainty thats killing me.
And I am planning to go all in on my own. Its an automatic loss I know, but I want to take who I want when I want it. Its not realistic to say im trying to make it to all of the games, but just having the option to do so when I want, have seats to call my own, and not have to worry about sellouts and "priority" on sale dates fuels my want for em. Maybe 2011 if this doesnt pan out, but we'll see.
Yup, the only thing left for CC to do was to beg, he open the door, and the Dodgers closed it.Originally Posted by In Yo Nostril
pmac come on, hes cheap as $#+!. sabathia was practically begging to be signed and he didnt want to pay lee the rest of his "astronomical"15 million dollars. that right there tells you enough, he has no business owning this team. if he genuinely wanted to win, it wouldnt have been an issue.

[h1]Dodgers Interested In Re-Signing Vicente Padilla[/h1]
By Tim Dierkes [November 4 at 9:19am CST]
The Dodgers signed righty Vicente Padilla to a minor league contract on August 19th; he'd been designated for assignment by the Rangers. Padilla pitched well in 39.3 regular season innings and in two out of three postseason starts. According to Dylan Hernandez of the L.A. Times, Dodgers GM Ned Colletti recently expressed interest in re-signing Padilla. The interest appears mutual.
Padilla's agent Adam Katz downplayed a recent "hunting accident" wherein the pitcher grazed himself in the thigh with a bullet. Padilla reportedly spent less than an hour being treated in a Nicaraguan hospital. Colletti told Hernandez he didn't know enough about the matter to determine whether it would affect his interest in re-signing Padilla. More troubling is Padilla's lengthy history of alcohol problems, but most MLB teams tend to ignore DUIs.
Padilla certainly won't be signing another three-year, $33.75MM deal. He might be able to get one year and $5-8MM. Aside from the Dodgers, the Brewers, Mets, and Diamondbacks are three clubs known to be hunting for starting pitching.
Gotta keep this guy on board.

Padilla has been a model citizen / team mate in Los Angeles and I wouldn't expect nothing less if he were to get a 2-3year deal.
