Baseball America: Dodgers have hired Patrick Guerrero as their Latin American coordinator.
Guerrero, who lives in the Dominican Republic, will run the organization’s scouting throughout Latin America.

Seattle’s decision to fire Guerrero, according to Baseball America’s sources, was made above Engle, an unusual move for a Latin American scout. Both Guerrero and Engle had been with the Mariners since 2000.

The Los Angeles Dodgers would appear to have a pretty good team on paper heading into the 2012 offseason.
