Bolded this team so no whining on that account.

Post off-season news regarding the team and/or random hatred towards the Yankees, Giants, etc.

I am excited to see this:

http://espn.go.com/los-angeles/mlb/story/_/id/7233500/sources-matt-kemp-los-angeles-dodgers-160-million-deal

I was worried the financial situation with the team coupled with their mediocre performance would cost them key players, namely Kershaw, Kemp, Ethier, etc.

After Kemp's contract situation is wrapped up I'm curious what will happen with Kuroda and other starting pitchers.

Kuroda is coming back. He has shown no indication of wanting to leave L.A..

Now just need to trade Ethier for a couple of prospects, insert Sands into the OF, and maybe even shop around Billingsley and see if you can get a decent corner infielder.

I thought Kuroda was considering returning to Japan?

I don't see why we'd get rid of Ethier, he did well last year.

No way.

Because Ethier is one of the most overrated players in baseball

Sell on him while he still has some value before he walks away next year. There's a chance the Dodgers won't even get draft picks for him if he walks with the new CBA.

He'll most likely be gone next year was one of my fave players during the past few years when he was actually healthy

Was always one of my least favorite players. I'd welcome a new face in RF

Kershaw wins the Cy Young in a landslide.

All we need is Kemp to take the MVP and we'll be the worst team with the best players in the league lol.
