By Adam Bernacchio Los Angeles Dodgers: Orlando Hudson and Ronnie Belliard are free agents for the Dodgers, so therefore, they have a need at second base.

Guillermo Mota, Dodgers (Type B; 2009 salary: $2.35 million): He’s 36, and still gives Mets fans chills every time his name comes up. The Dodgers didn’t have Mota pitch in the playoffs for a reason, and they’re not about to give him $3 million to come back.

By ANTHONY McCARRON, DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER The man who lost out to Joe Girardi when the Yankees replaced Joe Torre still wants to make the leap from Donnie Baseball to Donnie Manager and guide his own team one day. And Don Mattingly might end up replacing Torre after all when Torre is done managing in sunny Los Angeles.

By noreply@blogger.com (Drew Sarver) The Phillies picked up the option on Cliff Lee for 2010.

By Walter Fulbright The Dodgers have an odd claim to fame on this particular list, as they are the only team in playoff contention to have their payroll be down from their opening day estimates. The difference? Some unpaid 50 game suspension of a well-compensated eccentric LF that you may have heard something...

The Yankees will also be taking on another familiar face later in the season, making a trip to Los Angeles to square off against Joe Torre and the Dodgers during Interleague play. It will mark the first time Torre has managed against the Yankees since he vacated the manager’s office in the Br...

By Kevin O'Brien No. There is no manager in Major League Baseball that does everything perfectly. It makes true diehard Giants and Dodgers fans think of the old days, when Charlie Dressen was managing the Brooklyn Dodgers, and Leo Durocher was managing the New York Giants.

By Allen Lieu Manny Ramirez's camp has finally reached out to the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Angels could use Manny, but they just signed Juan Rivera to a three year contract and have an abundance of outfielders. The Dodgers need a big bat in their lineup. Andruw Jones is not the answer that the Dodgers are loo...

By Steve Sax(noreply@blogger.com) The market for Ramirez apparently has not heated up even after Mark Teixeira, the most coveted hitter available in free agency, signed last week with the New York Yankees.
