If we do trade away Randy, I am a little concerned about the lack of a left handed starter. I believe the Dodgers went quite a few years without a lefty in the rotation.

The only lefty still out there in free agency is Odalis Perez... is there any reason the dodgers didn't bring him back?

Shawn Estes is the other viable option, however, I believe the Dbacks wont sign him until (if they ever) deal Johnson...

Although, I'm not a proponent of the Dbacks acquiring him since his win total from last year was very misleading....

I think Mike Gosling, no matter what our roster moves are, will be that # 5 starter. Between him and Estes they will have necessary left-handed pitching.

Eric Milton still available? I remember hearing him to NYY, but don't remember it being finalized.

I'd love to see Odalis as a DBack. He was much better than his record last year, and should have won 16+ games.

I'd like to see a rotation like this:

1) Russ Ortiz (I hate seeing him in the #1 spot, but we don't have a true ace)
2) Odalis Perez
3) Brandon Webb
4) AJ Burnett
5) Oscar Villareal

The deal is apparently off because he wants 8 million a year. Kinda insane if you ask me. 6 mil a year for him seems reasonable.

Erivc Milton gives up too many HRs. Odalis Perez is a joke. He has the stuff to be great, but he has no makeup and he'll sit out games with a hangnail. Neither of these two clowns are worth the money they want.
