Instead of adding parts to their offense, the Dodgers was losing parts. They lost Orlando Hudson, Ronnie Belliard,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and Jim Thome to free agency, and they traded Juan Pierre to the Chicago White Sox.
The 2010 season would prove a successful one for Ryan Miller. In his first season begining with the number one job Miller and his team won the first 10 games in a row. Miller was voted in as the begining goaltender for the Eastern Conference of the 2010 NHL All Star Game in a 12 to 9 loss, Miller played the first period and allowed just 3 goals. Miller also gained a reputation of a shootout specialist with his technique of challenging the shooter outside the crease. That season Miller was 6 more in shootouts, with Martin Brodeur from the Devils being his closest rival at 2 less win. In 63 games played that season, Miller posted a 0.911 SVP and a 2.72 GAA backing a more offensively oriented team. Kevin C. Cox Miller finished the 2010 season by establishing himself as the begining goalie for the Sabres. Miller arrangeed 11th among NHL goalies with a 2.60 GAA,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and 9th with a save percentage of 91.4 percent. Miller led the Sabres to a surprise season, winning 30 games and proving himself to be one of the hardest working goalies in the league. Miller played well in the postseason as well, advancing the Sabres to the conference finals before injuries finally caught up with them, losing game 7 to Carolina.
It’s been a pretty rough offseason for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
If Anderson does make the Dodgers’ Opening Day roster, it will be strictly as a left-handed pinch hitter off the bench.
According to Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times, the Dodgers have signed 37-year-old Garret Anderson to a minor league contract. Anderson can make USD550,000 if Miller makes the team out of spring training.
Anderson is a career .295 hitter with 2,501 hits,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 285 home runs, 516 doubles, and a .790 OPS in 16 seasons with the California/Anaheim/Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim and courageous, fearless, dauntless, intrepid, plucky, daring, heroic, valorous,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], audacious, bold, gallant, valiant, doughty, mettlesomes.
While the Dodgers have a pretty good begining nine, losing these players has cost Los Angeles valuable depth. Joe Torre’s bench—and overall team, for that matter—is pretty paper-thin. One big injury to this team and they will be in serious trouble.
You can follow The Ghost of Moonlight Graham on Twitter at theghostofmlg Ryan Miller was on born 17th July 2010. Miller is an American ice hockey goaltender currently the player of the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League. Miller was selected to play for the American hockey team in the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver,Canada as begining goaltender. Later in 2010 miller would win the Vezina Trophy as the best goaltender in last NHL season. Miller won a silver medal with the team and was named MVP of the tournament. Miller is known for his hybrid style of goaltending. Miller is also the older brother of current Detroit Red Wings winger Drew Miller.
Anderson hit .268 with 13 home runs in 135 games with the Atlanta courageous, fearless,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], dauntless, intrepid, plucky, daring, heroic, valorous, audacious, bold, gallant,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], valiant, doughty, mettlesomes last year. His .268 average and .705 OPS was the lowest of his career.
When you is that thin, you look for depth anywhere you can find it. Earlier in the offseason,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Dodgers signed the ancient Brian Giles to a minor league contract. Now Giles has found his ancient tag-team partner.
Thanks to a messy divorce between Jamie and Farrange McCourt, the Dodgers haven’t been able to add many offensive parts this offseason.
Anderson and Giles in spring training for the Dodgers? Miller will take outfielders who was good 10 years ago for USD1,000, Alex.
