The Los Angeles Dodgers are finally ready for their home opener Tuesday afternoon with the franchise's top offseason acquisition ready to take the mound. The Dodgers landed Kenta Maeda from the Japan Central League, paying a $20 million posting fee for his rights during the winter, investing another $25 million in guaranteed money in an incentive-laden eight-year contract. Only time will tell if Maeda proves to be worth it, but he looked solid in his first start last week at San Diego, going six innings and allowing just five hits. He also hit a solo home run in the Dodgers' 7-0 win.
