Dodgers not ready to add Helms

Posted: Saturday April 05, 2008 09:59AM ET

Dodgers management is encouraged enough by the play of DeWitt and the progress of the injured third base threesome that they again rebuffed Philadelphia when they were approached about a trade involving Wes Helms this week, according to baseball sources. The Phillies have also offered Helms, whom they designated for assignment this week, to Florida and Atlanta.

get rid of nomar or kent and play whicever one is left at second. let laroche and dewitt battle it out for 3rd. whoever loses can then compete for the second base job with tony abreu, and when one of them is ready trade kent.

I'm sick to admit this as a Padre fan but everything appears perfect in Dodger land and at this very very early juncture I believe they are the NL's best team. Joe Torre is a big big reason of course. It's nice to see him actually smiling for the first time in about 3 years.

I hate the Dodgers, but I think it would be foolish to get rid of DeWitt. The guy's only been up a week, but he's proving that he can play.
