Thread: Dodgers off season thread (merged)

And as an aside, like James he was an accomplished pitcher as well but it's that grooved lefthanded swing that attracted the Dodgers. They don't see him at first, though.... The big thing is he's matured off the field. "I owe everything to Logan White," he declares. "He's given me my chance and I don't ever want to do anything that would make him sorry." One scouting report noted, "Strong hitter with bat speed, fluid swing, plate discipline and ability to use whole field giving him unlimited offensive potential. Hits pitchers from opposite side and stays inside ball."

My younger brother pitched against this kid in HS. Pretty good hitter.

I was thinking it had a striking resemblance to Bobby Abreu.

Dodgers re-signed Seanez for 1 year at 1.3 mil.

Not exactly the reliever re-signing I wanted to hear this week but i'll take it. Seanez will be good... until August.

Its not exactly 1.3 mil per. Its 550k base with 750k potentially in incentives.

As steady as he was early in the year I hope he lives up to the 1.3 mil though

Yea, nice work pointing that out. 550 base, not bad at all for Seanz who was surprisingly effective. Chances of him doing the same are probably not good, but he was worth bringing back, especially since they're going to have Meloan start.

Glad to see him get signed as well. I hope they dont use him as much as they did last season though, guy looked like he was on his last fart. Anyways, looks like the team is pretty much ready to go!

Some nice tidbits from the LA Times

Sign Up

Kemp spent most of the winter working out in Arizona, sculpting a frame that he said now weighs around 220 pounds. He was up to 240 at the end of last season.

"I had to shed some pounds so I could move a little bit more," Kemp said. "I feel quicker, I feel way stronger. Last year, I was over in the Dominican playing winter ball and I didn't get to work out as much. I was doing baseball stuff."

Closer Takashi Saito is "close" to signing a one-year deal with the Dodgers and should be under contract by spring training, a team source said. Saito, who made $1.2 million last season, is under the Dodgers' control.

Woot. Post #1000 in this thread!!
