Torre: Dodgers may go after A-Rod, Jeter, Giambi, Rivera, Posada, Mientkievicz, Cano, Mussina, Matsui, Cabrera, Abreu and others

LOS ANGELES, CA — New Dodgers manager Joe Torre reported today that the Dodgers are considering signing Alex Rodriguez to a record contract, and that he’s also submitted a “wish list” to Dodgers brass.

“Yeah, I let them know a few players that I think we might sign,” Torre told SSNN. “I said, let’s go after A-Rod. And then I thought we also might consider signing Jorge Posada and Mariano Rivera. Both of those guys still have a lot of baseball left. Then I said, maybe let’s go out and try to trade for Derek Jeter and Robinson Cano – great double play combination. Then I thought, ‘Let’s shore up our outfield,’ so I suggested that we go out and get Hideki Matsui, who can really hit; Melky Cabrera, with his awesome glove, and Bobby Abreu. I mean, what an outfield that would be!”

Torre did not stop there. According to Dodgers GM Ned Coletti, Torre also suggested that the Dodgers pick up Jason Giambi, Chien-Ming Wang, Mike Mussina, Joba Chamberlain, Phillip Hughes, Ian Kennedy, Carl Pavano, Roger Clemens, Brian Bruney, Kyle Farnsworth, and Luis Vizcaino.

“I feel like there’s just a couple of tweaks we need to be competitive,” Torre said. “You know, add in a little piece here, a tiny bit there, and we can be a pretty interesting team.”

In related news, Johnny Damon emailed Torre to let him know that he has always dreamed of living in Malibu.

Torre you have a young all start catcher in L.A you need to put your dollors some were else (one starting pitcher and two good bats) that’s all you need to win.
Most of the Yankee players that you mention are way over pay incuding Mr.Malibu.
