With James Loney there...he will never see first base.

Then where are they going to play him? Will he be the #1 pinch hitter?

Well that is not going to help get to 600 HRs.

He'll only be there til the end of the year. Dodgers need some more pop for the playoffs. In the off season, he'll be traded back to the AL.

Change of scenery? Works for some. :)

He can only hope.

I also like Contreras going to Colorado. I can't wait to see how far his pitches go at that altitude. :r

Isn't that why they signed Giambi?

I've always liked Garland and Thome will certainly add in some oomph.

Giambi is a Rockie not a Dodger. May be LAs answer to Colorados signing of Giambi.

Glad to see Contreras get out of chicago actually. He played like ass this year(I loved Jose in 05 though:D). I hate to see Thome leave. LA is getting a great bat and also a great guy in the clubhouse. I guess people can look at this as throwing in the towel. The cubs threw theirs in a while ago, so why not us;)

Thome will be missed:sad

The Cubs didn't throw the towel in. They had it thrown at them, and it hit them square in their yambags...what a disappointment. :r

Thome turns the Dodger Lineup into an AL lineup in the AL park during the WS, not sure they should be looking that far ahead tho.
