A new Ken Gurnick article on MLB.com, Addition by subtraction works in LA, gives not much new if you’ve been following along this off-season, but is the usual sort of Opening Weekend piece. A couple of paragraphs are impressive, however, as they show, first, who is no longer on the team since Colletti took over, then who he’s added. A lot of names.
Subtracted from the roster since Colletti arrived: Milton Bradley, Antonio Perez, Jason Phillips, Duaner Sanchez, Steve Schmoll, Jose Valentin, Derek Thompson, Jeff Weaver, Paul Bako, Hee-Seop Choi, Cody Ross, Jae Seo, Edwin Jackson, Dioner Navarro, Sandy Alomar Jr., Odalis Perez, Danny Baez, Willy Aybar, Cesar Izturis, Joel Guzman, Jose Cruz Jr., Ricky Ledee, Kenny Lofton, Greg Maddux, Julio Lugo, Aaron Sele, J.D. Drew, Jason Werth, Oscar Robles, Lance Carter, Giovanni Carrara, Elmer Dessens (twice), Mike Edwards, Jason Grabowski, Eric Gagne, Franquelis Osoria and Kelly Wunsch. [...]
Here are the players Colletti’s added, in all caps if still on the roster: RAFAEL FURCAL, Sandy Alomar Jr., Kenny Lofton, Bill Mueller, ANDRE ETHIER, NOMAR GARCIAPARRA, BRETT TOMKO, RAMON MARTINEZ, JOE BEIMEL, Aaron Sele, Jae Seo, TIM HAMULACK, Danny Baez, TAKASHI SAITO, WILSON VALDEZ, MARK HENDRICKSON, Toby Hall, Elmer Dessens, WILSON BETEMIT, Greg Maddux, Julio Lugo, MARLON ANDERSON, Einar Diaz, RANDY WOLF, JUAN PIERRE, MIKE LIEBERTHAL, JASON SCHMIDT, LUIS GONZALEZ, CHIN-HUI TSAO and BRADY CLARK.
