Building on what Elsid said in the thread on 08-11-10

Elsid without divulging names said in todays thread that there are players that want off the Dodgers. He did not provide reasons nor name names. I fully respect him and the confidence of his brother, and possibly others, that he is keeping. That said it certainly brings up the topic of "Who wants out?" And why? Teams go through evolution constantly and through revolution from time to time. Are the Dodgers about to enter a revolutionary period? Many of us would like to see the owner go, in favor of an owner with deeper pockets, but this is a unrealistic expectation, in my opinion. Frank is going to hold on tight with both hands. Joe is nearing the end of his career. Again there are many that will say good riddance. The game has passed him by, he cannot relate to the youngsters that currently make up the core of the team and will probably struggle to relate to the players soon to come up through the system. with the ownership situation it seems to me we will have a younger team (read cost controlled) in the very near future, whether Ned wants it that way or not. So the question is, who of the young core will be around for this transformation? And who wants out. This poll is not about who you want to be here or be gone, but look into the players eyes and guess who wants to jump ship. Obviously feel free to elaborate on your choice in the comments
