I'd like the Dodgers to sign Paul Lo Duca or Johnny Estrada, especially Paul Lo Duca, as a back-up catcher for the remainder of the season . . . hence releasing current back-up catcher dud Danny Ardoin. Felipe Lopez could also be the back-up SS insurance the Dodgers were looking for Nomar Garciaparra, Im ok with Berroa though so I don't find this as necessary.
