Hey, How about a Dodger Post!

Well here we go. The Dodgers have had some ups and downs, but have also made some roster changes. Here's the current roster:

DL:
Ramon Martinez
Jason Schmidt
Jason Repko

Position Players
Martin - C
Lieberthal - C
Nomar - 1B
Loney - 1B
Saenz - 1B/PH
Abreu - 2B/3B/SS
Kent - 2B
Furcal - SS
Betemit - 3B
Gonzalez - LF
Pierre - CF
Ethier - RF
Kemp - RF/CF
Anderson - OF

Pitchers
Lowe - SP
Penny - SP
Wolf - SP
Kuo - SP
Billingsley - SP(?)
Saito - CL
Broxton - 8
Beimel - LRP
Hendy - LRP
Tomko - RP
Seanez - RP

Seanez is actually a legitimate choice for a 7th inning guy. I'd like to see them get rid of Tomko when Tsao is ready to return, although I'd rather him be really ready than not ready like Schmidt.

If you were to do the rotation by quality, right now it would be
Penny
Lowe
Kuo
Billz
Wolf


And Kuo is a few more excellent starts away from staff ace territory. Really, that guy can pitch, and he's got great stuff. He's a worthy adversary for Roy Halladay on Wednesday. Billingsley, if he continues on the pace of his reliever numbers, could be an excellent starter too. Wolf has been slumping a bit lately, but picked it up a little in his last start. His latest difficulty is pitching deep into games, but he's still been better than expected this year.
