Dodgers' Alex Guerrero realizes a trade might be good for him
Even with Juan Uribe gone, Alex Guerrero is still a man without a position with the Dodgers. Justin Turner has taken over at third base and Andre Ethier has become the team’s primary left fielder with Yasiel Puig back from the disabled list. Alberto Callaspo has served as a backup multiple times at third since coming over from Atlanta, and Scott Van Slyke has often played left.
According to the Orange County Register, Guerrero indicated that he would be open to a trade. He said:
“I’m comfortable here in Los Angeles. I like my teammates. I like my coaches. But I also have to think of my career. If there’s a chance for more playing time, that would be good for me.”
Guerrero has appeared in almost every Dodger game over the past two weeks, but has only started twice. He’s hit .188 with two RBIs over that stretch.
