Dodgers And Empire In Pursuit Of Andrew Miller

UPDATE: Evil Ones close in
It's really hard for us to root for the Denizens Of Chavez Ravine, but when they're competing against The Bronx Embalmers, all bets are off. ESPN.com's Buster Olney reports that both the Dodgers and The Evil Ones are in "serious" pursuit of former Sox reliever Andrew Miller. It's hard to believe that the Red Sox aren't also in the hunt—since Miller could fill the post-Koji closer role, be an eighth-inning stopper or even start down the road. Between the Red Sox and Orioles last year, Miller posted a 2.02 ERA over 62.1 innings—with a stellar 0.802 WHIP.
