I am searching for a few 1980s Dodgers.

1. Brad Wellman, 1987. As far as I know he is still on the missing list.
2. Jerry Grote, 1981. Jerry was released by the Royals in August of '81 I think, but signed on with the Dodgers in time to play a few games during their stretch drive. Images of him with the '77-78 clubs are available, but I haven't seen anything of him with the '81. (You can tell which year by the patch on the sleeve.)
3. Alex (Alejandro)Taveras, 1982-1983. Topps Vault released some photos of Alex in the '84 uniform, presumably taken in spring training of that year, but he did not play a big league game in '84. He did play for the Dodgers in '82 and '83, but I haven't seen any shots of him in the uniforms of those years.

Esoteric, I know, but any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
