LOS ANGELES -- The Dodgers did not offer salary arbitration by Wednesday night's deadline to any of their seven free agents and will receive no compensation if they sign with another club.

Dodgers free agents are Casey Blake, Jonathan Broxton, Jon Garland, Hiroki Kuroda, Mike MacDougal, Aaron Miles and Vicente Padilla. Kuroda is the lone ranking player among them, a Type B.

The Dodgers want to re-sign Kuroda, but not anywhere near the $12 million he made in 2011, so they had no interest in risking a similar arbitration salary in return for the compensation Draft pick.

There was no one worth offering arbitration except Kuroda. There was a clause in Kuroda's contract that didn't allow the Dodgers to offer arbitration. I 100% expect Kuroda to come back though.

If Harang deal is backloaded ($4.5m/$7.5m, as a guess) Dodgers will pay Lilly/Harang/Capuano/Uribe/Ellis/Hairston/Guerrier $47.75m in 2013

Good god.

@jorgearangure: CJ Wilson just said on Sportscenter he would have preferred to sign with Dodgers if they had been a suitor.
