10:46 AM ET 11.06 | The Dodgers aren't likely to pursue a premier front-line starter such as Cliff Lee. Free-agent pitchers such as Carl Pavano, Javier Vazquez, Jake Westbrook and former Dodgers Jon Garland, Hiroki Kuroda and Vicente Padilla could become targets if the market should drop after the holidays. Aside from pitching, GM Ned Colletti said his focus will be on adding a left fielder - "full time or platoon," he said - rebuilding the bench and figuring out what to do behind the plate. There is nothing to indicate the Dodgers will be in the running for high-end outfielders such as Carl Crawford or Jayson Werth, but they could make a run at veteran catcher Miguel Olivo, who figures to come reasonably priced despite his solid season in Colorado.

Why don't you just say it, you want Jason Werth or Crawford.
If I were the Dodgers, I would take care of the issue with the McCords first. That is the biggest blemish on this once proud franchise.

Great job. Throw out the name of every possible FA and say they "could be targets" of the Dodgers.

The Dodgers had Werth and he sucked. He will suck again when he hits in a weaker lineup playing in a bigger home park.

But, he'll make a couple on target throws to third base that may make it seem he was worth the millions wasted on him!!

Regardless of who the Dodgers target, Pavano needs to target that moustache for summary termination.

Offseason Priority #1: Convince owner to sell.
Offseason Priority #2: Sell team.
Offseason Priority #3: Ban Frank McCourt from Dodger Stadium.
Then worry about the position players.
