So what do you think of all the moves the Dodgers have made?

GOING OUT

Matt Kemp
Andrew Heaney
Dan Haran
Dee Gordon
Hanley Ramirez
Honestly I have mixed feelings, I'm thrilled they let Hanley Ramirez go, he turned out to be a joke, a lazy one at that, played games in the dugout with Puig. I know they had to let go of either Kemp, Crawford or Ethier.Talk was Crawford would go, while both Crawford and Kemp have huge salaries to move. I don't mind seeing Kemp go, yet when he's hot, he's on fire. I honestly thought tho' Either would be traded.
So Kemp mixed feelings, and I don't mind Matt going, in fact at times, more than not, I get sick of Kemp, when he's not producing. The only time this year he got hot, was when the Bums told him, he would be traded....
Ramirez
Kemp
Haran too, a 10 million dollar joke....
GOOD RIDDANCE....!!!
Now Gordon, that blows my mind, the kid should of got the Bums player of the year, he busted his ass, and made a name for himself, with his hustle. I recall a few years ago, he couldn't field a clean ball or hit worth a shit. He was sent back down by Donnie, and came back with a fiery elegance. That move was a huge mistake IMO...The Bums should of let Gordon go back to his natural positron at SS, and let Darwin Barney and his Gold Glove take over 2nd.
Heaney I know little about....
Now coming in, Rollins is no improvement over Ramirez, and I think Jimmy is on his last legs. I would NOt of picked him up. I'd of as said prior, put Gordon at SS and Barney on 2nd, that would of been a bang bang combo...,
McCarthy will more than let everyone forget Haran.......I'm thrilled to see him coming...
Howie Fkn Kendricks, I can't stand, yet he can bring some play making in offense and defense, yet I don't see him being any better than Gordon or Barney, we will see on that, I got to despise Kendricks, as the Halos said he was the 2nd coming of Willie mays, my ass......
Grandal, I'm not sure about either....
Anyway you cut it, the Bums needed to move Haran right away, they need a solid #4 and #5, McCarthy will do a better job than Haran.....,.
Other than that, I think the Bums made a huge mistake in this trade....No Rollins, No Kendricks,
I'm really not happy about any incoming players other than Brandon....
and I'm sure as hell pissed about losing the Bums spark plug Dee Gordon.....but thrilled to see Ramirez walk. I have never seen a lazier player whose head was NOt in the game most times, as Hanley, good fkn riddance....
I love that quote I heard on the radio last year, when Ramirez walked back to the dugout, after a passed ball strike 3, which he did not run out: "I paid 8 bucks for a Dodger Dog, to see Hanely fail to run out a passed strike 3, WTF"!!!!!!!
Then again, twice I've seen Hanley fail to cover 2nd on a turn 2. While both times, he was looking in the stands, un fkn believable...
