The O-Dawg!

Orlando "O-Dawg" Hudson signs one-year $3.38 million contract with $4.6 million in incetives. 

I can't wait to hear Vin saying "Here is the O-Dawg" all year long.  I've always like Hudson, I'm just hoping this doesn't affect Blake Dewitt's development.  Dewitt is naturally a third baseman anyway so he could be moved back over and send Blake to left field.  Like everyone else, I would rather see Manny in left.  If I have to choose between Pierre or Blake in the outfield I'll take Blake every time. 

Or maybe we'll sign Manny and then platoon Blake and Dewitt at third.  Either way I think the Hudson signing is going to work out pretty well.

I'm assuming the lineup will look something like this with the current lineup;

1. Furcal (SS)


2. Hudson (2B)


3. Martin (C)


4. Ethier (RF)


5. Kemp (CF)


6. Loney (1B)


7. Dewitt (3B)


8. Blake (LF)

How awesome would this lineup be though?

1. Furcal (SS)


2. Kemp (CF)


3. Ethier (RF)


4. Manny (LF)


5. Martin (C)


6. Hudson (2B)


7. Loney (1B)


8. Blake/Dewitt (3B)

That's a lineup that can do some damage.  Here's to hoping.
