i'll take either one of those guys, mainly Loney first though, but i doubt LA will let go of either for Dotel and some other prospect.

either these are some seriously retarted rumors being spead or the Dodger Management are having a brain fart.

they know better than to do something this stupid.

Dotel is washed up, not all that good and is a bullpen guy. Why would a Farm Savy team like the Dodgers give up a potential superstar in Kemp and a possible all star in Loney for a washed up bullpen guy, when we already have one of the best bullpens in MLB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyway, it was kind of funny to read.

Royals notebook: Dodgers showing interest in Dotel
By BOB DUTTON
The Kansas City Star

BOSTON | It appears the Los Angeles Dodgers have emerged as the most serious party yet in the Royals’ effort to seek an impact return by offering veteran closer Octavio Dotel before the July 31 nonwaiver trading deadline.

The Dodgers are looking to bolster an already strong bullpen and, presumably, would use Dotel as a setup reliever for All-Star closer Takashi Saito.

Dotel, 33, would also provide the Dodgers with a veteran backup for Saito, who has blown his last two save opportunities after converting 23 of his first 24.

Multiple sources confirm the Dodgers’ interest in Dotel, but they are balking at the Royals’ initial asking price — believed to be a young, established position player such as outfielder Matt Kemp or first baseman James Loney.

The Dodgers are unlikely to part with either for a short-term rental like Dotel, who can become a free agent after the season. It is because of his pending free-agency that the Royals are seeking to trade him to one of several contenders seeking bullpen help.

Dotel is 2-1 with a 3.32 ERA and nine saves in 12 opportunities in 20 games since returning May 22 from the disabled list.

nevneer gonna happen. Jonathon Broxton s the next gagne and current set up guy for sammy.

if we did get dotel, it would probly be for free (salary dump) or some low level average prospect, and most certainly not for Loney and/or Kemp.

you know how things work, you ask high, we will offer low. and in this case we dont need muck bullpen help so we can definalty stay very low.

BTW thanks for providing a link. that makes folks here know that you know what you are talking about and/or willing to back up your statements.

neither loney nor kemp are going anywhere for dotel.

you might get a lower level prospect like a delwyn young, but i can assure you if loney and/or kemp go anywhere it will be for a proven, high caliber power hitter, not a reliever with arm problems.

betemit shouldn't be the focus of your hatred...you should throw that frustration at Mr. .600 OPS Garciaparra. Betemit is doin much better lately than people give him credit for.

No way this happens, not for Kemp or Loney.

How about:

dodgers get: Dotel
Royals get: Bucket of balls and some sunflower seeds

LOL, just fuckin with you JLMACN

ahhh I hear that....

The Dodgers drafted a player I played against in Highschool in their 97-98 draft.....first round.

Damien Rolls from Kansas City,KS.....

He was playing with Tampa Bay a couple years back but fell off I guess. Last I heard he was in NY Yankees farm system...

trip out...I played w/ Fernando Valenzuela Jr on a travel ball team back when I was Playing 15U, he was overrated, but was drafted by the Padres, I think he was cut already.
