The Arizona pitching prospect to accompany Dioner Navarro to Los Angeles in the Shawn Green trade (now approved by the commisoner's office and waiting for Green's signoff on a contract extension) will be William Juarez, according to The Associated Press.
Juarez is a 23-year-old righty starter who split time between A and AA ball last season. He has good walk and strikeout numbers - 2.2 walks against 7.6 strikeouts per nine innings in his career - and only 20 home runs allowed in 408 innings. Like Navarro, probably not ready to have an immediate impact - the Dodgers' 2005 needs will have to be solved elsewhere.
