Milton Bradley designated for assignment by Oakland.He guesses at what pitch is coming,but if he is right,he can do a lot of damage against a good pitcher in the post-season.He is a free agent after this season.So,ya just renting for 3 months or so.Honeymoon could last that long(especially on a winning team.)Dodgers(can only hit bad pitching)need him worse than anybody,but won't take him.Wouldn't surprise me if Padres pick him up.Aren't they using that crappy Cruz in Left Field? Oh come on now.Get Major League.

Stephen, isn't this guy is a ticking time bomb waiting to explode??

I think he has proven it's all good as long as the team is a winner.I sure wouldn't pick him up unless the team is already likely to make the playoffs.This is no grinder.He isn't being let go for problems off the field.He is being let go,cuz they think he was going to be a problem(cuz of too many outfielders on the A's.)

either way...good luck if someone picks him up. Like walking on eggshells and the potential to F up a good team chemistry is hardly worth the risk...imo.

Some of these teams have no shot unless they get some real punch.The Dodgers and Padres are good examples.They put skirt on as soon as a good pitcher goes to the mound.I'm convinced neither of those 2 teams will hit in the playoffs.Every Dodger got a hit tonite in Tampa Bay.Believe me,against good pitching, they could easily get only 2 or 3 hits in the whole game.This I know.I have seen them put skirt on too often to be fooled anymore.They need playoff quality hitters.
