 T.J. Simers Blames Torre And (Surprise, Surprise) The Kids For Dodgers' Failures
T.J. Simers Blames Torre And (Surprise, Surprise) The Kids For Dodgers' Failures
I was just about to give up on finding something interesting to rant about when I stumbled upon a magnificent piece of journalism by T.J. Simers. "Dodgers kids still not buying in Perhaps they need some babying since Joe Torre's presence alone doesn't seem to be enough. Bringing in Don Mattingly as hitting coach might do the trick." Oh boy, I can tell this one is going to be good...

Ken Rosenthal Is Dumb, Dunn Trade Idea
I'll just go along with this as if an anonymous GM really came up with it. Why on earth would the Reds be interested in a player the Dodgers don't really want (Juan Pierre), and a SS who hit .159/.224/.206 in 107 ABs this year at the major league level? I must admit I don't dislike the idea of getting Hu based on scouting report from Fire Ned Colletti Now, but not in a deal that involves ...

 Is Ned Colletti In Danger Of Getting Fired?
Is Ned Colletti In Danger Of Getting Fired?
I only bring this question up because Uncle Ned got the infamous vote of confidence today from Frank McCourt. "'I have the utmost confidence in Ned and his group,' McCourt said.

Could The Dodgers Lose Kim Ng Or Logan White?
The Los Angeles Times speculates that the Mariners could be interested in either White or Ng for their GM job. "The Seattle Mariners haven't asked for permission to talk to any Dodgers executive about the possibility of replacing Bill Bavasi, the general manager they fired last week. Should the Mariners wish to interview Kim Ng or Logan White, Dodgers General Manager Ned Colletti said he...
