"Matt Kemp is uncertain about his future with the Dodgers, but right now that doesn't make him different from any of the team's other employees.

"I don't know the situation," he said on a conference call Thursday. "We don't know who's going to get the team."

Kemp will be eligible for free agency at the end of next season. With that in mind, General Manager Ned Colletti went into the off-season saying that signing Kemp to a multiple-year contract ranked among the Dodgers' priorities."
