    You gotta figure that was all part of the plan. Duffy got us Moore when we needed pitching, he was expendable with Arroyo in the wings. Nunez was a stop-gap until Arroyo is ready to step in at full time 3B. From what I've heard/read about Arroyo he's legit. Hopefully he matures into another great part of our homegrown infield thing we got going on here.

    Cain a little better this time around, but still too easy to hit.
    Baseball has been very very good to me!

    Shark is having a good spring. His home run pitch is already at mid-season form.

    Seems like Raggs just can't fix him. Is it pitching philosophy, he wants to throw what he wants and guesses wrong or something else? Maybe he's just a guy with potential but just can't get any better. Lots of guys were like that.

    I'm not worried. Pitchers are still working on things. Last year Bum had an ERA of 11.12 and Cueto a 9.58 ERA. Of course they didn't have prolonged issues like Samardzija, but he pitched well in the second half which gives me some optimism.

    Yeah, Shark isn't much of a concern for me either. Solid innings eater that can have an ace like game here and there.

    Well Spliff, I'm hoping for first half of '16 Shark. He was tearing it up.

    Shark was arguably just as good in the second half of the season as the first actually. He had a rough June and July but was otherwise a very valuable member of the starting rotation.

    I can't wait to see what prospect we trade for BP help because we refused to spend $2 million on some depth.

    We definitely should have gotten more bullpen help. I think it was kinda dumb to let Romo sign with the Dodgers for so cheap.

    Last time I checked the giants spent a lot of money on depth. That's why they have like 30 infielders fighting for 2 spots. #AllTheInfielders

    Last time I checked downsos was quite obviously referring to money spent on the bullpen.

    Wasn't it you that initiated a ban on these types of sarcastic hash mark quips in your Dodgers forum?
