Keeping my fingers crossed that it's just some A/AA nobody.<br /><br />Better than a Garland, Belliard, or Padilla jersey haha. It looks good.<br /><br />I'd love to see Thome stick around in LA a few more seasons to really bolster our bench, but I've heard that he's said he wants to get to 600 HR, so he'll almost certainly be gone and back to the American League to DH next year.Greg Zakwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09064188830164937436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958775228784031495.post-42258179708744630522009-09-01T01:11:43.442-07:002009-09-01T01:11:43.442-07:00I wrote something earlier, but it got deleted. I p...I wrote something earlier, but it got deleted. I pretty much agree with you on both acquisitions. Thome was a steal, that is an upgrade over Loretta in any situation. Also, if Loney continued to struggle, I'm sure Thome could fill in for a couple games at 1st base despite not fielding much the past few seasons.<br /><br />Now, you cannot be more correct about Garland. It is a headscratching move. He is a pitcher who gives up a lot of hits and earned runs. This team's strength has been the pitching, while the weakness is the recent offensive troubles. If we were going to just get some guy to eat up innings, we could have picked up Smoltz or Pedro. Colletti, hopefully he knows something we don't.<br /><br />Anyways, KK, you like the new jersey I'm gonna get:<br /><br /><a href="http://duckdodgersbatscleanup.blogspot.com/2009/08/dodgers-get-thome-and-garland.html" rel="nofollow">http://duckdodgersbatscleanup.blogspot.com/2009/08/dodgers-get-thome-and-garland.html</a><br /><br /><br />Haha =)Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13252758987246377351noreply@blogger.com
