Wishful Thinking
The Dodgers sign Claudio Vargas to a one-year deal, guaranteeing him the minimum $400,000. Vargas's seasonal age will be 31 in 2009, and he hasn't pitched a good season since his rookie year of 2003. Why are the Dodgers wasting even $400,000 on him, when they really need to replace Penny and Lowe?
