West Notes: Dodgers, Dempster, Angels, Hamilton

By Zachary Links | June 1, 2012 at 10:26pm CDT

After taking a look at the AL and NL East, it's only fair that we turn our attention to the Western divisions..

  • The Dodgers are expected to pursue pitching and hitting and Danny Knobler of CBSSports.com (via Twitter) wouldn't be surprised to see the club pursue Ryan Dempster of the Cubs.  Knobler adds (Twitter link) that that the Dodgers wanted Dempster two summers ago but settled for Ted Lilly once he was taken off the market by the Cubs.
  • Juan Rincon opted out of his contract with the Angels this morning but Alden Gonzalez of MLB.com (via Twitter) says that the Halos released him, making it a mutual decision in essence.
  • Rangers president Nolan Ryan says that there's nothing new to report when it comes to contract talks with Josh Hamilton.  Over the weekend, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports opined that the slugger is unlikely to sign an extension with Texas.

    Adam Lind to the Seattle Mariners for Justin Smoak, Brendan Ryan, or Chone Figgins, and relief pitcher Erasmo Ramirez would be a great trade for both teams. If Figgins is dealt, the Blue Jays needs to ship him to the National League team like the Milwaukee Brewers for relief pitcher like Axford if he’s available for a trade. Those three teams can benefit a change of scenery for those players mentioned and possibly bring back Refuse to Lose in 2012 campaign for the M’s.
