Dem Bums – A Dodgers Blog

No surprise here.  The Dodgers had a $12 million option on Eric Gagne, who missed most of last year. They’ll instead pay him the $1 million buy out.  I expect the Dodgers to resign Gagne, but it’ll probably be a short term, incentive laden contract to protect the team from losing Gagne’s service yet again.

Gagne will be back for 2007 and if he’s healthy, he’s definitely a guy we want coming out of the pen so inking the closer should be one of the Dodger’s top priorities.
