Nomar Garciaparra signs with the Dodgers to play first base. Ehhh.

[DirtyKash]

Nomar Garciaparra signs a one-year, $6 million deal to play first base for the Dodgers, pending physical.

1B-Nomar
2B-Kent
SS-Furcal
3B-Mueller

Best infield in all of baseball?

[General]

...and the Braves miss another free agent.

[realmofotalk]

Good deal, considering Fred McGriff once got $4 million to barely hit above the Mendoza line for a half season.

[Saber]

Uh, wouldn't Kent at first and Garciaparra at second make more sense?

[General]

It would, and that's probably what they'll go with.

[Providence A's]

I'm not sure they'll do that as the talks were about signing him to play 1B

[realmofotalk]

Kent clearly has a bigger ego than Nomar.

[General]

I think once Izturis comes back, Nomar goes to LF, Kent to 1B and Izturis to 2B.

[love_that_reefer]

Kent can turn a DP pretty well from second and I imagine a lot better than Nomar. Best infield in baseball? I am going to say maybe offensively but not defensively. Dodgers have signed some good players but they have tofind where to put them and they still need a couple of SP's. Better than having Choi play fulltime.

[realmofotalk]

The Phillies' infield of Ryan Howard, Chase Utley, Jimmy Rollins, and Abe Nunez is better.

[love_that_reefer]

Good deal, considering Fred McGriff once got $4 million to barely hit above the Mendoza line for a half season.

Don't forget that Todd Hundley contract, not to mention the Darren Dreifort one too

[Kingdom]

half of the texas infield > that infield

[Saber]

You mean the half of the Texas infield that plays at home?

[Fishercat]

Crap, Saber beat me to it.

[Kingdom]

The half that can play defense and isn't injury prone.
