Blog Kiosk: 12/10/2013 - Dodgers Links - Joe Torre Going to the Hall, Kasten on the Dodgers and Moving On from Uribe?


Check out this spectaular photo found on Reddit.  It is from a April 25, 1965 ballgame between the Dodgers and Phillies.  Willie Davis is captured by a well hidden camera sliding into 2nd base.  Photo by Neil Leifer/Sports Illustrated/Getty Images. 
“This year, I think we’re more into fine tuning,” Kasten said. “That doesn’t mean we won’t be opportunistic if some opportunity presents itself, but it also wouldn’t surprise me if we went through the whole winter without doing a big deal.” 
  • Mark Saxon also writes, "Dodgers prepared to move on from Juan Uribe".  Uribe is apparently testing the Dodger patience when it comes to their negotiations.
“Everybody can go do what they want to go do,” Colletti said. “Hopefully, this week we’ll have more conversations with them and at least get an update on their position. I’m in need of an update on their position.” 
  • Via Roger Schlueter at MLB.com, "Kershaw's greatness reaching historic levels".
  • Ken Gurnick at MLB.com writes, "D-backs' Gibson explains Ellis comment".
  • Teenage hurler Takumi Numata of Japan visited Dodger Stadium yesterday.  Apparently, he took a tour of the facilities and had a physical.  It's possible that he'll soon sign with the Dodgers.  He shared a pic of himself at Dodger Stadium that you can see here.  In case you forgot, he agreed to sign with the Dodgers earlier in the year, circumventing Japanese Amateur Baseball Association rules, which earned him a lifetime suspension from that league.  
  • Luke Adams at MLB Trade Rumors has a rundown of all the various rumors and gossip stories surrounding the Dodgers.  I have little patience for this kind of stuff, but if you're interested in the hot stove you should go there.
