Dodgers Claim Loaiza, Saving Oakland More Than $8 Million 

Post#1 » by risktaker91 » Wed Aug 29, 2007 6:47 pm

AP - The Dodgers claimed right-hander Esteban Loaiza off waivers from the Athletics on Wednesday, assuming nearly $8.5 million in guaranteed salary.

Loaiza, a two-time All-Star, had made only two starts after missing the first 4 1/2 months of the season because of three different injuries. He allowed just three earned runs in 14 2-3 innings in the two starts and gives the Dodgers depleted rotation a boost for the stretch run.

He'll be pretty good in the NL.
