Dodgers need SS, anyone know a team with surplus SS's?

I DO I DO! 

Any chance Colletti and Reagins can come up with a deal?  Got any ideas?  See poll.  Who do we want/need in return?  LaRoche for 3b?  Loney/Kemp/Ethier for OF?  

How about Iztu for LaRoche?

[Side note...Angels activated Bootcheck today and subsequently outrighted him to SLC.  This leaves us with 39 on the 40 man roster.  Room for a trade or ???  See game notes. ]

The loss of Rafael Furcal to back surgery this week might lead Dodgers general manager Ned Colletti to a trade involving at least one of his prized young core players.

"We're more open-minded to who we may have to move than we were in the past," Colletti said Friday.

That is a shift in philosophy for Colletti, who has refused to part with the club's top prospects since he took over after the 2005 season, filling most holes with expensive free-agent signings.

Colletti wouldn't name names. But while All-Star catcher Russell Martin is presumed to be untouchable, Colletti's comments certainly put in play other young players like Matt Kemp, James Loney, Andre Ethier and Andy LaRoche, as well as a possible veteran such as Friday starter Derek Lowe, who is likely to leave as a free agent after the season anyway.
