Steve9347 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 And thus kills the return for Ozzie Guillen! Dodgers acquired INF Osvaldo Martinez from the White Sox for cash considerations. Martinez, who was acquired from the Marlins last September as part of the Ozzie Guillen deal, was hitting just .178 with zero homers and a .450 OPS over 230 plate appearances with Triple-A Charlotte this season. The 24-year-old will serve as organizational depth. http://www.rotoworld.com/player/mlb/6410/osvaldo-martinez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Dye Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Really thought he would make this team. Fell off completely this year it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Odds are it is just an expired gift card to Sbarro's that Kenny is going to try to sneak by using. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 (edited) Who would pay for this guy? I bet the Dodgers stop payment before JR gets the check to the bank. Either that or the Dodgers are endorsing an MF Global check over to the Sox. Edited July 10, 2012 by Dick Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I really want to know how much he fetches. The Red Sox probably got more for Babe Ruth, non-inflation adjusted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldsox Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Osvaldo was maybe the greatest player to come from Porterville Community College. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet the Dodgers stop payment before JR gets the check to the bank. Either that or the Dodgers are endorsing an MF Global check over to the Sox. The Dodgers have no AAA SS. When Dee Gordon hit the DL, they called up the last player at AAA resembling a serviceable infielder. They will likely release him as soon as Gordon is back (which could be a while).

Didn't they have a hotsot SS propect a few years back that was supposed to set MLB on fire. I think his name was Liu or something along those lines. Just goes to show how many of those "can't miss" propspects actually miss. Is that Philly OF playing this year, Brown? Who would've though Juan Pierre would be playing OF and hitting over .300 and Brown is yet to be heard from. Then you have guys like Quintana and Nate Jones come out of nowhere and have big time success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you have guys like Quintana and Nate Jones come out of nowhere and have big time success. Maybe you mean Chin-lung Hu? He absolutely raked in the minors and after getting called up, proceeded to suck. He wasn't very good. Ended up on the Mets (and I think the Cubs) and is now meddling in independent baseball somewhere. In other Dodgers minor league news, Josh Fields is tearing up the PCL to the tune of 346/412/515 (including a .442 BA in his last 10 games). http://www.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?p...&pid=435222 With the Dodgers woes at 3B, Josh has to be wondering what else he needs to do to get the call. They've been nearly as bad as the White Sox pre-Youkilis production at 3B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
