Pierre to the Dodgers: 5Y/$45M

[Uber]

According to FOXSports.com's Ken Rosenthal, the Dodgers may be moving close to signing outfielder Juan Pierre.

Pierre could be one of the worst signings of the winter if his deal rivals the three-year, $30 million offer the Giants reportedly submitted. We're becoming more skeptical about that one. If the Dodgers sign Pierre, the Giants will probably change their focus to Dave Roberts. They're also pursuing Gary Matthews Jr., but he seems like a long shot for them. The Brewers also want Roberts.

Watching Pierre sign with another team for beaucoup bucks is going to make my offseason.

Agreed. I'm so happy he's gone. I'm trying to forget that he was ever a Cub.

Plus, if he signs this early, the Cubs won't have to make an arbitration decision on him and will (I think) get a sandwich pick for losing him.

I eagerly await the Plaschke article about this.

[Shilzzz]

draft pick please!

[PrimeTime]

10 mil a year?? And then Matthews Jr. wants 13 Mil a year after only one good year?? Who the hell do these guys think they are?

I'll go out on a limb here and say there will be a reference to a dirty uniform in said article.

There's trust in his ey...legs.....

I don't think anyone can complain about the Soriano deal if he ends up making only $7M per more than Pierre...

call me crazy but I think pierre will bounce back next year. But in no way do I want him on our team. I think the warm weather will let him get in a groove earlier. too bad his arm is going to be a joke in dodger stadium. He might need five cut off men on a deep fly to center.

[Soriano12]

He should grow the mustache back.

bounce back? He lead the league in hits. That's about as good as he gets

Don't forget that he was the 2006 leader in groundballs.
