Dodgers are expected to sign Adam Kennedy - latimes.com
"If the Dodgers sign Kennedy, he would join a modest free-agent haul that includes outfielder Juan Rivera (one year, $4.5 million), second baseman Mark Ellis (two years, $8.75 million) and catcher Matt Treanor (one year, $1 million). The Dodgers' payroll, which was around $110 million this year, is expected to be lower next season." -

Henry Aaron in Dodgers bidding? He says no - latimes.com

Jonathan Broxton Moves On To Kansas City - True Blue LA
"It's a shame that Broxton will be most remembered as a Dodger for giving up game-winning hits to the Philadelphia Phillies in back-to-back Games 4 in the NLCS in 2008 and 2009, but those are the breaks for closers. Broxton is one of the best relief pitchers the Dodgers have ever had."
