    Would the Dodgers have legitimate interest in JD Martinez? The Tigers will sell him for sure and I think the Dodgers could sacrifice the defense for the powerful bat

    It sucks that such poorly researched and written articles get the benefit of your traffic. That article on the Segura extension is garbage.

      I thought the exact same thing. And as far as not moving positions, I expect Cano to move to first within the next three seasons and Segura to slide over to second. The writer of that blog was a goof..

    Ok. Who gave just another fan a spot to write on their website? For a piece not picking a side they did a poor job hiding their bias.

    The Off the Bench article fails to even mention the death of Segura’s infant son and the possible correlation to his down years. It’s uninformed and much too basic in analysis.
