The Dodgers have a lot of allure for free agents these days. They have owners willing to spend, but not overly meddlesome on the baseball side. They play in a mediocre division and they're coming off a trip to the NLCS, so veteran players see them as a place they could win a ring.But the best thing they have going for them, at least judging by their last two signings, is simple geography. Starting pitcher Dan Haren took a one-year, $10 million deal to pitch for the Dodgers largely because he's raising his family in Southern California.
