The Dodgers signed pitcher John Koronka and outfielder Timo Perez to minor league deals, reports MLB.com's Ken Gurnick.
Koronka, 29, made two starts for the Marlins last year and tossed another 128.6 mediocre innings for their Triple A club. Perez spent the year in the Mexican League, hitting .323/.406/.476.

So does that mean the Dodgers are going to the World Series…? 3 out of the 4 teams that kept him to under 200 at bats went, ie. Mets – 2000, White Sox – 2005, Cardinals – 2006. haha

Keep those terrible players coming! Berroa, Perez, Koronka, Russ Ortiz, Nick Greene, the return of Ausmus, and all the rest!
At least none of them except one of Berroa/Greene and Ausmus will have any real affect on the MLB team.

Oooook? Is all you do go around and sh*t talk the Dodgers?

I’m agreeing with your post not bashing the Dodgers. Believe me when the Dodgers add a quality impact player that will make the team better I will get excited. So far they have done nothing substantial to better the team for 2010….Chicken Hawk!

It’s not new that our minor league system is running on fumes. With our youthful core in the bigs right now and with us not offering arb to Wolf or Hudson therefore not getting draft picks for them, we are running out of prospects down in AA and AAA. I don’t even want to mention the mistake in letting Bell and Santana go in trades to reduce the amount of money we would have to pick up in aquiring players. It’s sad to see a once thriving minor league system reduced to what it is now.
Most of these minor league deals are garbage. It’s like they’re trying to win the lotto. We’ll be ok next year but 2011, if no contract extension is offered to Kuroda or if he under performs this year and no one can step it up to become a starter out of our pitching prospects that got some call ups in the bigs last year, we may very likely go in to the 2011 season needing 3 starters. Highest attendece in sports history, crippled by the foolish, cheap owners, a divorce and no plans of investing in future talent through draft picks. Sigh
