Dodgers outfielder Juan Pierre has seen his role diminish recently, and he's still looking for the team to trade him.

"I realize I can't control anything but the way I go out and perform so that's what I concentrated on," Pierre said.

Pierre is in the third-year of a five-year, $44 million contract.

"It's all in God's hands," Pierre said. "He has me here for a reason. That's how I've come to grips with not being in there every day."
