Wolf gets $7.5 million next year, and the Dodgers have a $9 million option for 2008 with a $500,000 buyout. His 2008 salary would become guaranteed if Wolf pitches 180 innings next season.
"Randy is a veteran pitcher who has proven to be a very effective starter in the major leagues," Dodgers general manager Ned Colletti said. "Having grown up in Los Angeles, he knows what it means to be a Dodger, and as a left-hander, we expect him to complement our starting rotation well."
Wolf spent much of last season recovering from elbow surgery. He came off the disabled list on July 31 and went 4-0 with a 5.56 ERA in 12 starts for the Philadelphia Phillies, pitching 56 2-3 innings. |

Nice deal for the Dodgers, although I think they overpayed a bit. Wolf will have a much lower ERA in LA then he had in Philly (5.56), and could win 10-12 games if he stays healthy.
