Using words like "perplexing" and "curious" and "bitter," Jeff Kent took veiled shots at Manager Grady Little and direct shots at the Dodgers' kids. "You can use all your fingers on your hand and point around," he told the media in Colorado after the 9-4 loss. "There's many things that have happened that are perplexing. Many things that have happened that are curious." When asked if those things included Little's daily lineup and decisions, Kent said, "Everything." This also, apparently, includes the younger players on the team, about whom Kent said, "I don't know why they don't get it." As for Kent, he will make noises about retiring, especially since the Dodgers will reduce his playing time next year while playing Tony Abreu. But I've got 9 million reasons he will return, his option having vested on Thursday, not coincidentally the same day he publicly complained.-- LA Times
