NL West Notes: Dodgers, Montero, Desmond

By Ben Nicholson-Smith | March 16, 2012 at 3:12pm CDT

Four teams have won the NL West since 2006 and the Rockies, the lone team never to win the division, have made the postseason twice in that six-year period. Here are the latest links on the NL West…

  • The leaders of two failed bids for the Dodgers will appeal MLB's decision to a mediator, Bill Shaikin of the LA Times writes.
  • Andrew Baggarly of CSNBayArea.com hears from sources who expect the Dodgers to bid aggressively on free agents once a new ownership group is in place.
  • The Diamondbacks had been hoping to lock Miguel Montero up for $8MM per season, but he may cost $12MM now that Yadier Molina signed a deal worth $15MM annually, Jim Bowden of ESPN and MLB Network Radio reports (all links go to Twitter). Towers is already eyeing catchers in the minors and Majors, Bowden reports.
  • The Diamondbacks are considering moving Josh Collmenter to the bullpen if and when a starting pitching prospect such as Trevor Bauer or Tyler Skaggs is ready, Bowden reports.
  • GM Kevin Towers told Bowden the Diamondbacks have no interest in Ian Desmond. They were linked to the Nationals shortstop earlier this week.

    No kidding the DBax have no interest in Desmond. The guy cannot glove, the guy cannot hit. Nice speed, if only he could swipe first…

    If we could do this 3 team trade, I would be happy. Parra to Nats, prospects to Blue Jays, D’Arnaud or Arencibia to Dbacks (hopefully D’Arnaud.

    “Four teams have won the NL West since 2006 and the Rockies, the lone team never to win the division, have made the postseason twice in that six-year period.” In addition to that, the NL West has had a team in the NLCS in four of the years since then (one year in which BOTH were from the NLW), two of those years they were in the World Series, and one was a championship. This is why the NL West is the strongest division in baseball, and yet we get no respect.

    Most Nats fans (including me) don’t want Desmond….or Parra.
