Bob Keisser of the Long Beach Press-Telegram likes where the Dodgers are headed:
The Dodgers placed 15 players on Baseball America's top prospects list from each minor league. The club has a major-league prospect at every infield position, two deep in some cases and a half-dozen pitchers rated by scouts as having major-league potential. ...
"Every prospect doesn't make it," (Paul) DePodesta said. "But if you have three or four players you believe are very good, chances are one or two will come through." ...
Oh, and then there's this: DePodesta said he plans to aggressively pursue adding TWO starting pitchers from the free agent or trade ranks for the 2005 team and is serious about keeping free agent third baseman Adrian Beltre.
What a concept - the Dodgers' present and future looking promising at the same time.
