Iwamura to Dodgers?

by Patrick Newman (Oct 26, 2009)

Sanspo is speculating on Akinori Iwamura's future, and this time it doesn't involve a move to the Hanshin Tigers.

Aki has a $4.85m option (with a $250k buyout) for next season that must be exercised or declined within a day after the conclusion of the World Series. The idea is that the Ray's would pick up the option and then move Iwamura in a sign-and-trade style deal. The speculation is that the likely destination for Iwamura would be the Dodgers, who will have an opening at second base with Orlando Hudson not returning. Sanspo asked Ned Colletti about Iwamura, and he gave a boilerplate "I can't talk about players from other teams" non-comment.
