With Ethier and Kemp solidified in the outfield (Barring a trade), it looks like we'll end up with the most overpaid non-DH pinch hitter in baseball - whoever it is.
As soon as Pierre comes back he will go right back into the top of the line up and will play everyday. It doesnt matter how good everyone else is doing or how ****ty Pierre does.
Kershaw was solid in Jackonsville since his demotion. Here's a report from BA's hot list.
Quote:
No. 11
CLAYTON KERSHAW, LHP DODGERS
Team: Double-A Jacksonville (Southern)
Age: 20
Why he's here: 2-0, 0.00, 12 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 8 SO
The Scoop: Kershaw's eight big league starts were marred by too many walks and high pitch counts, but he's slowed the game back down in his return to the SL. In three starts for Jacksonville since being optioned down, he's struck out just 12 in 18 innings—but in giving up three runs on seven hits in that span, he's been just as untouchable. Best of all, Kershaw has issued just four walks in those three starts, as he refines his pitch efficiency. And with 100 combined innings already this season, he's approaching the career-high 122 he logged last season.

(Note: Dodgers, Braves and Cardinals fans everywhere are nodding and saying, "Yup ... been there, done that.")

Considering Joe Torre's love for vets I bet Ethier goes back to playing every now and then.
This series is a night game, night game, day game. I'd rather Nomar sit the day game after night game. So with him sitting out tonight, does he play Wed's day game?
I'm guessing LaRoche gets 2 starts and third and one for the old man at second. With the way Colorado hit the ball over the weekend the Dodgers are going to need all the offense they can get. Hopefully LaRoche is as good as most of you think he is...
Good to see Kershaw back. So soon enough it's
Bills
Lowe
Kuroda
Kershaw
Penny
With Chan Ho, Stults, Schmidt (???) doing what? Figure Stults goes back down, Ho to the pen, Schmidt to the pen.

And everyone here will bitch about Pierre playing. It doesn't matter if he hits .400 with an OPS of 3.5. He still sucks.

The Dodgers should just collect the insurance money on Schmidt.

The one thing Colletti has done a good job of(with the exception of the Juan Pierre contract) is that he's kept the contracts he's doled out short term. Thus even though many if not all his free agent signings have been busts we're not stuck with albatross contracts like the Kevin Brown deal. It's sad to think that detail is one of the good things Colletti has done because it's relatively minor but at least we didn't give Schmidt a 5 year deal.

Let's hope that him pitching hurt were the main reasons for his struggles.
