The Los Angeles Dodgers list of Non-Rosters Invitees to Spring Training got a whole lot more interesting when they invited 29-year-old Third Baseman Josh Fields to Spring Training. The Dodgers really don't have a true Third Baseman on their roster right now. Fields bounced around the minors and Japan last season after coming thru the Chicago White Sox organization and spending some time with the Kansas City Royals. He will never hit for a high average but he could provide some pop at the plate and play a decent third base.
The Dodgers need another left-handed reliever. That is why lefties Alberto Castillo and Will Ledezma stand a decent chance of making the team if they have solid spring training performances. They both have major league experience.
Catcher Josh Bard is also an intriguing invitee. The Dodgers top three catchers are A.J. Ellis, Matt Treanor, and Tim Federowicz and none of them are really that impressive. Treanor and Bard have the most experience of the bunch and I don't know if any of them will hit.
