Quote:
In a post to Twitter today, Buster Olney of ESPN.com said, “The Dodgers aggressively seeking a second baseman.”
Meanwhile, Jon Heyman of SI.com believes the Dodgers have contacted the Mets about 2B Luis Castillo, as have other teams.
Heyman thinks the Mets should consider sending Castillo to the Dodgers for OF Juan Pierre.
The 32–year-old Pierre will earn $10 million next season and $8.5 million in 2011, after which he can become a free agent.
He hit .308 with a .365 OBP, 24 extra base hits, 30 stolen bases and 27 walks in 380 at bats in 2009.

Hey if the Dodgers want to take him, be my guest. The thought of trading him for Pierre doesn't make any sense to me. Its the same player but Pierre is making more money. They can take Castillo for a bag of balls.
But whats interesting is the fact that the Dodgers say they need a second basemen, when O Dog just won another gold glove and had a very decent year. Makes you wonder why they are so sour on Hudson.
I still want Hudson to wear a Met uni, but if they rumors of Phillips are true about the Reds having him on the block I think you have to give them a call first.
