Now I fully understand why the Dodgers had to unload the salaries of Ismael Valdes and Eric Young--so they could fill their roster with second-hand scrubs like F.P. Santangelo and Gregg Olson. Just think of how many more worthless reserves they could sign if they were willing to dump the salaries of proven veterans like Eric Karros and Gary Sheffield.
