Last time the Dodgers won a Gold Glove at the following positions:
C – Russell Martin, 2007
1B – Steve Garvey, 1977
2B – Orlando Hudson, 2009
SS – Cesar Izturis, 2004
3B – None
OF – Matt Kemp, 2009
OF – Steve Finley, 2004
OF – Raul Mondesi, 1997
P – Greg Maddux, 2008
The timing wasn’t right for Ron Cey or Adrian Beltre to win Gold Gloves for the Dodgers …

- Sam Miller of the Orange County Register questions a system that makes relievers 35 percent of Type A free agents.

All my best wishes and thanks to the nation’s veterans on this day …
