Many including myself, wanted the Mets to pick-up Will Ohman for several years. Ohman was seen as a solid lefty who could pitch multiple innings.When the market dropped out, it appeared that the Dodgers had stole the lefty reliever signing him to a one year 1.35M minor league deal with a 2.2M club option for 2010. Ohman made the team out of spring training but only appeared in 22 games before being sidelined with a shoulder injury.Ohman blamed the original injury on only having a week of spring training but while rehabbing the shoulder suffered a set back and required surgery in Sept. He is expected to be ready for spring training but at 32 y/o and an injury risk I'd take my chances with Misch.The Dodgers made the first decision of an offseason that hasn't even started yet on Friday by declining the $2.2 million 2010 option on left-handed reliever Will Ohman and instead paying a $200,000 buyout that makes him a free agent. source MLB.com

After layoff, Kuroda melts down vs. Phillies

Hiroki Kuroda’s first start of the postseason for Los Angeles was a bitterly brief one. Two singles, a double, a triple, a home run.

Joe Lemire: Will Dodgers' Kuroda be rested or rusty in Game 3 of NLCS?

Hiroki Kuroda, the Dodgers' Game 3 starter, hasn't pitched since Sept. 28. Will he be rested or rusty? To beat the Phillies, Kuroda has to avoid his biggest problem, says Joe Lemire.

Broxton unable to deliver

PHILADELPHIA -- Part of being a closer, the most mentally taxing job in baseball and perhaps all of sports, is knowing that eventually it will be your turn to fail. Sooner or later, a ball is hit where they ain't, or an outfielder loses a ball in the lights, or a hitter who knew exactly what you were about to do rips a game-winning double into the gap, and then you lose. And when...
