  making poor signings (e.g. Juan Pierre, Jason Schmidt), and failing to acquire a big bat when one was needed. Well, good thing for both Little and Colletti -- owner Frank McCourt says they'll both be back next year:Frank McCourt characterized the Dodgers' season as a "disappointment" Sunday but said General Manager Ned Colletti and Manager

• Stark's Latest: Edmonds, Pierre, Guillen, Santana

  Baldelli, Jim Edmonds, and Juan Pierre.  If only Ned Colletti could get someone to take his Pierre contract.  Then he could sign another one almost equally as bad.  Then he could trade Aaron Rowand a year from now and repeat the process. The Braves also liked Crisp, so they'll move on for now.  Stark speculates a stopgap

• Dodgers, Andruw Agree On Two-Year Deal

  signing bonus. That pushes Juan Pierre and the rest of his $36.5 million contract over the next four years to left field. Jones, 30, one of the best defensive centerfielder’s to ever play the game, hit .222 with 26 home runs and 94 RBIs in a down year for the Atlanta Braves last season. This would seem to make it more likely for the

• Andruw Jones: Steal of the Offseason, Or Bust Waiting to Happen?

  in the way isn't Jones, it's Pierre, who was a bad signing at the time, and remains so today. [...] I love this contract. It will be far and away the smartest thing any team does this winter, and it pushes the Dodgers up a little bit closer to the Diamondbacks in the 2008 NL West race. A ringing endorsement, and probably an accurate one. So

• Juan Pierre Is Deeply Confused

  than David Eckstein, it's Juan Pierre. No matter what Pierre does -- post a .330 OBP in the leadoff spot, slug .353, fire off a 75 OPS+ -- no matter what Pierre does, he seems to retain his defenders. With the signing of Andruw Jones in the offseason, it looks like the Dodgers have acquiesced to the fact that Pierre was a mistake. They've

  column about the reasons Juan Pierre is going to be the star of the Dodgers this year? Not awesome. If you'll notice, what I did just there in the above paragraph is write a series of sentences with the same structural composition. Builds momentum, you see. I actually learned it from Plaschke, who learned it from Mastercard commercials, and

• Juan Pierre Not Happy Being A Bench Player

  One reporter asked Pierre if he wanted to remain with the Dodgers to which the 30-year old responded: "I'm not going to answer that one.  It is what it is. I'm not going to touch that one." Pierre is currently behind young outfielders Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier, along with offseason acquisition Andruw Jones, in the

• Frank Wren: the Braves Knew Andruw Jones Was Donecakes

  a genius (see: Jones and Pierre, Juan), but what, exactly, have you pulled off this season? Greg Norton is a beast but until the Braves lock up another innings eater or middle infielder, it might be better to let actions speak instead of words.Look, we all saw Druw stink up the joint last year but in terms of power, I find it tough to believe
