December 13, 200322 yr I have no clue who it is going to be but I wouldn't mind if it Yhency Brazoban who is rumored to be one of the PTBNL in the Brown deal. This guy throws in the upper 90s.
December 13, 200322 yr Who do you think it will be? A shortstop since thats our only depleted position in the prospect department.
December 13, 200322 yr Who do you think it will be? A shortstop since thats our only depleted position in the prospect department. We need OF, 2B, and of course everyone always needs pitching.
December 13, 200322 yr I don't care I still can't believe that they actually traded for him. Beinfest must've saw something the Dodgers didn't in the prospect. It sounds like this might be an Alfonseca-Clement type deal with the prospect. Ex. Willis.
December 13, 200322 yr We still Jesus Medrano for 2B and Chip + Nunez for OF. We really need a SS. Agreed. Anybody know if the Dodgers have a good SS prospect?
December 13, 200322 yr It would have been convenient to have gotten some Vlad money out of this deal.
December 13, 200322 yr It would have been convenient to have gotten some Vlad money out of this deal. Vlad money=Loria and Beinfest and Ferraria (Sp)
December 13, 200322 yr If it indeed is a prospect that we are acquiring for Encarnacion, here are two lists of the Dodgers' top ten prospects. The Baseball America list is dated Feb. 24, 2003 and The Prospect Report list is dated Jan. 1, 2003. Baseball America - LA Dodgers Top 10 Prospects (Subscription needed to view full list) The Prospect Reports - Los Angeles Dodgers Top 10 Prospects Don't bite my head off if some of these players have already been called up or traded away, because I don't really feel like checking all of these details right now
December 13, 200322 yr they were speculating on the dodgers board that it could be one of the two minor leaguers they received on the brown deal..
December 13, 200322 yr Encarnacion would never go for a number one prospect but number 7 on the Prospect Report could be a possibility.
December 13, 200322 yr I don't care I still can't believe that they actually traded for him. Beinfest must've saw something the Dodgers didn't in the prospect. It sounds like this might be an Alfonseca-Clement type deal with the prospect. Ex. Willis. huh? I doubt its anyone close to Willis' ability Enc was going to be nontendered next week so LA knew they wouldnt have to give up anything special
December 13, 200322 yr UberUbi is talking about this guy (hey, he's Dominican! lol): 7. Joel Guzman, SS HT: 6-5??WT: 220??Bats: R??Throws: R??2003 AGE: 19 on 11/24/03 The Skinny: One of the most hyped players to ever come out of the Dominican Republic, Guzman signed for a Dominican record $2.25 million bonus in 2001, with scouts already comparing him to a young Alex Rodriguez. His pro debut was inconsistent, but a success overall considering he is still the age of most high school seniors. On a pure tools level, Guzman is beyond reproach. He projects to hit for average and power, shows an excellent understanding of the strike zone, and features good range and a plus arm. Because of his size, he may be better suited for third base, but he has both the arm and the bat to play there. 2003 Outlook: Guzman's ceiling is as high as anyone in the system, but he's still very far away from being major league ready. He'll get his first taste of full season baseball at South Georgia in the Sally League.

That is funny.... :lol :lol :lol Do you think it might be him, because I don't know what Beinfest would want with a future third basemen.
December 13, 200322 yr Unless the Dodgers have a monkey running the FO it won't be someone in the top 20.
December 13, 200322 yr Unless the Dodgers have a monkey running the FO it won't be someone in the top 20. well there fans seem to be stupid so I wouldn't be surprised.
