He was leaving on good terms. Juan Rivera is due back pretty soon anyway!

They are thrilled to get rid of that big mouth.Just about every other guy would take his 6.5 mil and try to win a ring with an obvious playoff team like these Halos.I really don't think he is all that good,anyways.He looks like a 40 year old out there.

Scuds: it was a mutually agreed decision...He loved it there but wanted to play more....his play didn't dictate that he should be in the lineup...so they cut him loose.

They spent 6.5 million on him.Now they are willing to let him walk.They aren't stupid.They know he isn't worth anywhere near what they paid,but most of all,Scioscia wants no part of a self- centered cancer like this.There is no guarantee the kids will hit in September,but they know this guy's skills are decayed.

He can't expect to play every day on a team with good young hitters when he's hitting around .250.
