Estes Tries Relief
Veteran starting pitcher Shawn Estes Monday agreed to report to the Dodgers’ Minor League camp and attempt a transition to left-handed relief specialist. Estes, cut Sunday with a choice of reporting to the Minor Leagues or receiving his release, said the compromise was raised in a meeting he had Sunday with general manager Ned Colletti. The Dodgers have been unsuccessful finding a second left-handed reliever to compliment Hong-Chih Kuo. — Ken Gurnick
