http://bleacherreport.com/tb/dfaCW?...m=newsletter&utm_campaign=los-angeles-dodgers and- http://bleacherreport.com/tb/dfaCS?...m=newsletter&utm_campaign=los-angeles-dodgers Honestly James Loney? Loney was a flop in LA......What about signing Longoria to a long term contract.....? 1 reason I usually don't hang these Rumor Rags out to dry in public....We all know as much if not more, IMHO.....!!! PS: I hope to Hell Cashbox is not stupid enough to sign the dumb fk Hanley Ramirez....just say NO..... Ramirez IS the ONLY MLB Player I can recall who took a strike 3 call on a passed ball to the backstop, and did NOT run to 1st base, but turned around and walked back to the dugout.....! Fkn Moron...."I paid 8 bucks for a Dodger Dog, and Hanley cannot run out a passed ball" I want my Money back....!
Re: Maddon Rumours Still Abound: Bums Skipper in 2016, If Donnie BB Falls Short in 20 I'd say Ramirez and Puig are major head cases, Kemp snivels, Crawford got that big money and flopped. Kershaw flubbed the dub twice and that's just a few of the things that Mattingly has to deal with. You knew when Friedman got that job the rumor mills would open. I saw that little maggot Rosenthal insert that "managerial trade" BS right into the Friedman move report. That team does need some adjustments personnel wise, I feel for Donnie Baseball the man deserves better.
Re: Maddon Rumours Still Abound: Bums Skipper in 2016, If Donnie BB Falls Short in 20 In a recent article I read Friedman was quoted as saying, "Mattingly will be our manager in 2015" And yes I agree Ramirez & more so Puig are both a few french fries away from a happy meal.
Re: Maddon Rumours Still Abound: Bums Skipper in 2016, If Donnie BB Falls Short in 20 ...I think the only reason Friedman said that is because he knows Maddon is still under contract through next year...otherwise, Mattingly would be toast.
Re: Maddon Rumours Still Abound: Bums Skipper in 2016, If Donnie BB Falls Short in 20 That's like Lou Pinella saying "there will be a game 5 during the '01 playoffs. Votes of "confidence" are most usually total BS.
Re: Maddon Rumours Still Abound: Bums Skipper in 2016, If Donnie BB Falls Short in 20 I don't doubt it...that was what I was thinking prior to rumors flying with Maddon.... I'd agree as well, Puig is a child in mind, plays with wreck-less abandon. Fans love to see him play, yet those with more an eye, and mindset for our National Past Time, would say Puig needs to grow up quick, or could be used for some pretty good trade bait. Oakland has inquired about Yasiel, and can afford his lower price tag. Puig could bring some talent to the forefront, in trade...! Ramirez is a joke in many ways....Kemp a cry baby, who may or may not of come to the conclusion he needs to take any OF position he can get. The Bums have a CF'r in the Minors they're looking at bringing up, and will NOT trade these young prospects off. Crawford could go, Gonzo needs to stay, perhaps Ethier too-(stay)... Loaded with talent and a huge payroll, yet Guggenheim gets approx $230 Million from Time Warner Brothers yearly, thus his payroll those the largest in MLB, is not quit what most think or know....BTW-I heard Comcast is buying up TWB-C....?
