MLB.com's Jesse Sanchez reports that the Dodgers have agreed to terms on a four-year, $28 million contract with Cuban second baseman Alexander Guerrero.

Sanchez says the total potential value of the deal is $32 million. Guerrero, 26, drew interest from the Giants, Rangers and Red Sox before settling with Los Angeles. He's a power-hitting second baseman and could open the 2014 season as the Dodgers' starter at the keystone.

Retiring or stepping down? Dumb if it's the latter.

With the Cards getting swept.

Stepping down i believe.

 

[yeezus]

With the Cards getting swept.

I'd honestly rather the Cards win than the Red Sox.

Same here. Don't know which I hate worse: the Cards' smugness or the Red Sox "aren't we so precious" cuteness.

Supposedly 2 years for $35M with a full no-trade clause.

WOW

 

[Bdawg2309]

hahahahhahahahahhaha

That goes way beyond dumb. Holy mackerel.

So that makes Kershaw worth what, $35 mil a year?

 

[Heyward]

They offered him around 30 a year.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

I've gone back and forth on who I think will win, but my official prediction is the Red Sox in seven games.

 

[Dalyn]

Cardinals in five.

 

[Heyward]

Cardinals in five.

Same.

 

[JusticeForAll23]

Holy **** what a terrible call. Red Sox just got screwed big time if this doesn't get overturned. Instead of bases loaded one out, it'd be runners on 1st and 3rd with two outs.
