If you are the Dodgers, why? They have Dee Gordon and Alex Guerrero at 2B.

Barney is a nice glove if the NL ever decides to use the Designated Fielder.

Cubs trade Darwin Barney to Dodgers for a player to be named later, most likely Darwin Barney after the Dodgers realize he's Darwin Barney.

He will only play as a defensive replacement.... Doubt he sees much playing time really

No, Barney wasn't even starting as Alcantara was correct?

Gordon has played in 100 of the Dodgers 106 games this year. Guerrero got set back by having his ear bit off by Miguel Olivo. He's just now coming back off the DL. I guess the Dodgers would rather let Guerrero play everyday at AAA this year than ride the pines for an occasional start in the bigs.

Next year he'll be ready to compete, but Gordon seems entrenched at 2B right now.

plus it gives us a defensive replacement that we can use at second. this move was just to add depth to our middle infield when we have none

Exactly. Even if Guerrero were ready, he's more of an offensive threat than a defensive one. I like this move provided we didn't give up too much.

Lol at you for thinking Lemahieu would have any chance of playing for the Cubs in the next year even had they kept him.
