Dodgers, MLB and Trade Prospects
Digest more
With a glaring need to add depth in the bullpen again, the Dodgers will likely be buyers. USA TODAY Sports' Bob Nightengale provided some options to consider. Among them: Jhoan Duran of the Minnesota Twins and Emmanuel Clase of the Cleveland Guardians.
On Friday, Finkelstein and Staph predicted that the Dodgers would land left fielder Steven Kwan and closer Emmanuel Clase from the Cleveland Guardians for a prospect haul consisting of catcher Dalton Rushing, shortstop Alex Freeland, left-handed pitcher Jackson Ferris, and outfielder Eduardo Quintero.
Though the cost may be high, Steven Kwan would be an ideal two-way addition to the Los Angeles Dodgers' World Series pursuit.
The Red Sox have spoken for years about building towards sustainable success, but one look at the Dodgers shows how far they still have to go.
The Red Sox were white hot prior to the All-Star Break winning ten in a row. They have won just twice in the six games since the Break, though. Currently, Boston is 6.5 games out in the American League East and possesses the league’s final wild card spot.
