March 5, 2010 Vicente Padilla threw two perfect innings in Friday's 8-3 win over the White Sox. He had no walks or strikeouts. Our View:Padilla should be a quality No. 4 starter for Los Angeles, and will have good enough support to improve upon his 12 wins of 2009. |

January 21, 2010 Ken Gurnick of MLB.com is reporting that the Dodgers have signed pitcher Vicente Padilla to a one-year, $4 million deal. Our View:The $4 million is being called his base salary, so he will likely have the opportunity to make more through incentives. Padilla pitched well after joining the Dodgers in August last season, but considering he has not posted an ERA below 4.46 since 2003, it's hard to believe he will be an impact pitcher next season. |

January 17, 2010 Vicente Padilla "remains a candidate to be re-signed" by the Dodgers, according to Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times. Our View:Padilla was dynamite for the Dodgers after joining them late last August, going 4-0 in eight games (seven starts) with a 3.20 ERA and 38 strikeouts in 39.1 innings. Considering Los Angeles' budget constraints, he could be the only free agent starter they can still afford. |
