Schumaker on Dodgers’ Radar
The Dodgers have talked to the St. Louis Cardinals about a trade for utilityman Skip Schumaker, who could double as a back-up to center fielder Matt Kemp and second baseman Mark Ellis. Schumaker, who lives in Orange County, is a devoted disciple of new Dodgers hitting coach Mark McGwire. Schumaker would also add a needed left-handed bat to the bench. The Dodgers also are considering free agents Nate Schierholtz and Eric Chavez for the bench. — Ken Gurnick
