Today, on Baseball Prospectus, Joe Sheehan has a very good article about the Dodgers, and i'll quote as much of it as I can for you guys. It basically talks about how terrible Juan Pierre is, and how incompetent the Dodgers must be to continue playing him.

Bleacher Report - MLB 8/7/2008
It was a day of frustration for the St. Louis Cardinals. That being said, I had a thoroughly enjoyable experience, because I was able to cover the Cardinals as a member of the press. Before I get into the real details of my day, I want to thank Dave ...
