일단 빅리그 라인업 먼저 얘기합시다. 오늘은 일본인 선발투수끼리의 맞대결이네요.

지금껏 MLB에서 일본인 선발투수끼리의 맞대결 일지입니다. 대부분 AL경기에서 나왔네요. 인터리그가 있긴하지만....

Lookouts center fielder Trayvon Robinson has been placed on the disabled list with a groin injury.
얼마전부터 경기에 나오지 않아서 걱정했는데, 결국 사타구니 부상으로 DL로 갔습니다. 공식사이트에서는 7월 17일 등제되었기때문에 트레이드 칩으로 사용되기란 거의 불가능할거 같습니다. 상대적으로 부상이 심하지 않는 걸로 알려진 사타구니이지만, 이런 순간에 부상당하면 트레이드할 상대팀이 꺼리겠죠.

이로써 체터누가에서 카일 러셀의 생명연장은 이어졌습니다. 드레프트되기 전부터 어깨가 좋았고, CF도 볼 수 있는 선수이고, 팀의 외야수가 3명뿐이어서 당분간 라인업에 계속나올거 같습니다. 일단 오늘경기전까지 AA에서 118타수중에 51K나 당했더군요. 현지에서도 거의 포기하는 분위기인거 같습니다.

Rays said to be shopping BJ Upton. With Manny out, Dodgers could use a bat, and Tampa has some interest in RHP James McDonald.
팬하우스닷컴의 에드 프라이스씨가 흥미로운 얘기를 트위터에 올렸더군요. 근대 이게 가능한 매치업인지는 (다저스팬입장에서도) 안될법한데....

개인적으로 업튼의 실링이 아무리 높다할지라도 이런 트레이드는 안했음 좋겠네요. 템파와의 트레이드는 항상 좋지 않았고, 지금껏 콜레티가 까이는 가장 큰 이유중에 하나가 템파와의 다수트레이드를 통한 대부분의 실패였기때문에...

The Dodgers' search for a relief pitcher might have become a tad more urgent this month. Ronald Belisario has been put on the restricted list with no word on how long he figures to be gone. Two relievers the Dodgers have scouted heavily, according to a major league source who asked not to be identified, are Toronto's Scott Downs and Jason Frasor.

Downs has a 2.52 ERA in 44 appearances and is left-handed, so naturally he has caught the interest of several teams. That means the Dodgers might have a better chance of reacquiring Frasor, a right-hander who was a Dodgers prospect when he was traded to the Blue Jays for outfielder Jayson Werth near the end of spring training in 2004.

That trade turned to gold for Frasor, who has more or less been in the majors ever since. This year, he has a 4.42 ERA in 41 appearances.

What ultimately may determine whom the Dodgers pick up at the deadline -- or if they pick up anyone at all -- is whom they are willing to part with. Assuming they don't go into a total freefall in the NL West between now and the deadline, they will be hard-pressed to give up a current major league player.

That means they almost certainly will have to deal from their deck of prospects, most of whom are at the lower rungs. The Dodgers probably are unlikely to trade either of their top two pitching prospects, right-handers Chris Withrow and Ethan Martin, or their top position prospect, shortstop Dee Gordon. As the old saying goes, you can never have enough pitching, and shortstop is considered a premium position.

Those are far from the only Dodgers prospects likely to draw interest from other clubs. Lefty Aaron Miller, their first pick in last year's draft, is a hot commodity, as are right-handers Nate Eovaldi, Allen Webster, Elisaul Pimentel and Rubby De La Rosa along with outfielders Kyle Russell, Jerry Sands and Blake Smith.

What may determine what the Dodgers are able to do is what other clubs are willing to do. Some teams might be more desperate in certain spots and thus more willing to make a better offer than the Dodgers. Some clubs might have more financial flexibility and thus be better able to take on more, if not all, of a highly paid player's current contract.

"I can't predict what other clubs are going to do," Colletti said. "We have narrowed our choices. We have scouted several teams, so we're prepared."
분위상으로 토론토로부터 릴리프를 수급할거 같은 분위기네요. 그 대상은 아래와 같은데, 개인적으로 피멘탈(Elisaul Pimentel)은 넘겨도 루비 데 라 로사(Rubby De La Rosa)는 넘기지 않았음 좋겠네요. 아론 밀러(Aaron Miller)를 넘기는데는 반대하지 않습니다.

Matt Gelb of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports (Twitter link) that Philadelphia has signed Timo Perez to a minor-league contract and assigned the outfielder to Double-A.
얼마전에 방출당한 티모 페레즈가 필리스와 계약했다네요. 빅리그에 올라와서 다저스를 괴롭힐 선수라고는 1%도 생각되지 않습니다.

The Phillies and Dodgers expressed interest in Cody Ross, according to Juan C. Rodriguez of the South Florida Sun Sentinel. Those two teams discussed Ross with the Marlins, as did the Braves, Red Sox and Yankees. Ross tells Rodriguez that seeing his name in trade rumors is "not a good feeling," but until July 31st comes along, the rumors probably won't stop.
내년시즌이 끝난 후 FA가 되는 코디 로즈(Cody Ross)의 경우 아주 다수의 팀들이 관심이 있다는데, 다저스도 끼여있나 봅니다. 양키스로 갈거 같다는 개인적인 생각인지라 이 루머는 없는거나 마찬가지일거 같습니다.
