6. Torii Hunter to the Dodgers Juan Pierre is still under contract, but he's a massive liability for the Dodgers. He's terrible at the plate and roundly overrated with the glove. Yes, he's only one year into that deliriously stupid five-year, $44 million contract, but it's time to treat him as a sunk cost. That means unloading him for whatever you can get (rosin bags, used jocks, canned wine) or relegating him to a reserve role. Playing Pierre on a daily basis will only compound such a bad decision. Throughout baseball last season, only the White Sox endured worse production from center field, so the Dodgers badly need an upgrade. That brings us to Hunter. Defensively Hunter is exceptional, and he'd also provide L.A. with some much-needed power. Hunter's also more of a known quantity than the other premier center fielder on the market, Andruw Jones.
That damn Anderson!
8. Jon Garland to the Brewers Given Ben Sheets' health issues, Dave Bush's struggles and Yovani Gallardo's youth, Milwaukee badly needs a regular in the rotation. Garland would give them that. In each of the past four seasons, Garland has worked at least 208.1 innings, and in each of the last three seasons he's posted a better-than-league-average ERA. Get him in the NL and out of hitter-friendly U.S. Cellular, and he'll look even better. Since the White Sox are starved for young talent, the Brewers should be able to accommodate. A package built around hitting prospect Mat Gamel figures to do the trick
Garland's road/home splits the last three years:
Home ERA: 3.78, 3.97, 3.56
Home WHIP: 1.21, 1.36, 1.12
Road ERA: 4.76, 4.90, 3.44
Road WHIP: 1.45, 1.46, 1.23
What's up with the evolution of this guy as well?

It looks like some kind of Boston Coffee Shop band.
