I like the Dodger trade. 
 
Paul LaDoca is too small to be a catcher LONG TERM.  He's having a good year, so this maybe a good time to trade him.  (highest value) I'm glad Charles Johnson turned down the Dodgers.  I'd like to see Ross develop. 
 
 I like Jason Werth and Steve Finley. 
 
I thought Penny was a decent pitcher.  Nomo might be dead, so they need a replacement that's cheaper than Randy Johnson or Kevin Brown. 
 
Mota was good and the Dodgers probably should have gotten more for him, but I guess they weren't planning to pay him  next year.   I think the Dodgers were worried about paying LaDoca more money next year too. 
 
Diefort use to be good in the bull pen, but then he tried to become a starter.  He's overpaid and he doesn't have the arm to start.  Hopefully, now he'll be good in the pen again.  He wants to start, but he's better as a reliver.
