October 30, 200718 yr The Journal News is reporting that Joe Torre will be hired as manager of the Dodgers. The announcement could come as soon as today. Don Mattingly is in line to join his staff.

Even David Letterman wants to know, wondering Monday night whether Torre might be headed to Los Angeles. "Maybe Dodgers, maybe Angels?" Letterman asked.

October 30, 200718 yr One thing I miss about the 70's and the old division was HATING the Dodgers. Now they are just an irrelevant team to us Reds fans. They used to be the HATED Dodgers.
