Farewell to Wood, Peraza, Jimmy Johns, and Avilans.

Maybe they put Olivera at 3rd? Is that a possibility?

Likelihood, I thought.

 

[Garmel]

Maybe they put Olivera at 3rd? Is that a possibility?

I would guess that's his most likely place to play.

 

[jsebe10]

Well, if this "trade" goes through when do we see Hector in Atlanta...where does this put Jace and we still have CJ...

I guess you could speculate who the starting 5 going forward are as well...

Won't be this year.

The guy is simply a huge mystery.

 

[nsacpi]

Why do people keep saying that? He's playrd in 19 minor league games and he's never faced MLB pitching, which happens to be the best pitching in the world....and one major factor... HES 30!!!

Cuban players are very hard to get a handle on. Olivera is generally considered one of the best hitters coming out of Cuba. We'll see. No doubt there is more risk than any of us are comfortable with. But there is some upside there.

Yeah, I think 3rd is the best option. He's got the arm to do it, and will be easier on his legs than LF.

 

[Dalyn]

I wonder how Olivera's bum elbow will react to all those long throws?

 

[KB21]

He is 30, which means he is already past his physical peak. There isn't much upside here.

We're now seeing Hart's plan all a long. 20 years after we beat the Indians in the World Series, he's dismantling our team and destroying our franchise.

 

[nsacpi]

Maybe they put Olivera at 3rd? Is that a possibility?

He mostly played second in Cuba. But he probably doesn't have the quickness to play there. So probably third. Possibly left.

Justin Turner and Howie Kendrick.

The Dodgers have rigged the system. They can afford to sign the best of the best to trade for even better.

I get that LA has a ton of depth, but if you've got the talent you might as well play it.

 

[Oklahomabrave]

I just keep praying for a ****ing update for us to receive more.

 

[Dalyn]

We should probably trade Freeman before he gets hurt and put Olivera at 1st.

You should try Satan. This is worth your soul.

He is 30, which means he is already past his physical peak. There isn't much upside here.

If he ends of being a solid regular (2-3 WAR player), there will be considerable surplus value in that contract.

That's hilarious.

 

[The Tariff King]

With as hard as Freddito throws, I wouldn't rule out a possible TJ surgery before 2017.

 

[weso1]

I had Wood penciled in as our Opening Day starter next year and 2017.

The good news is that pencil likely has an eraser.

Yep. The Dodgers realized he was a bad signing and now they are gonna get rid of him.

Better trade him now just in case.
