Editing Jon Garland (section)

===Los Angeles Dodgers===
Garland was traded to the [[Los Angeles Dodgers]] on August 31, 2009, for a player to be named later ([[Tony Abreu]]). He was already in Los Angeles as the Diamondbacks were playing the Dodgers that day. Television camera showed Garland being told of the trade during the sixth inning. He made his Dodgers debut on September 3, 2009, pitching against his old teammates. During this game, the Diamondbacks broadcasters found their key of the game from a 9th grader which was, "Keep your friends close, keep Jon Garland closer." He pitched in six games for the Dodgers, finishing 3–2 with a 2.72 ERA but was left off the post-season roster. After the season, the Dodgers declined the $10&nbsp;million option on Garland for the 2010 season, making him a free agent.<ref>{{cite web |last=Gurnick |first=Ken |date=2009-11-05 |title=Dodgers pass on Garland's 2010 option |url=http://losangeles.dodgers.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20091105&content_id=7626392&vkey=news_la&fext=.jsp&c_id=la |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091108094543/http://losangeles.dodgers.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20091105&content_id=7626392&vkey=news_la&fext=.jsp&c_id=la |archive-date=2009-11-08 |access-date= |website=Los Angeles Dodgers |publisher=MLB.com}}</ref>
