3 Best Trades Dodgers Need To Make Before MLB Trade Deadline

am I the only one who hates trading with the dodgers? I just feel like their front office runs circles around us in negotiations and we don’t get much when we trade with them. They have the luxury of negotiating from a position of strength, they have more money then anyone else, they have a deep farm, and they have the most stacked team. They are truly a monster in every way, shape, or form.

Texas Rangers 2021 draft preview: Peyton Stovall

Taking a look at Louisiana prep infielder Peyton Stovall, a potential 2021 Texas Rangers draft pick

This is a kid that I read about a couple of days ago that I think would make a good second pick.

Lol, he should fit right in.

"The Dodgers designated Santana for assignment last week. The 25-year-old saw big league action in each season between 2018-21. Across 40 2/3 MLB innings, Santana has only managed a 6.42 ERA/4.88 SIERA with worse than average strikeout and walk rates (18.7% and 11.9%, respectively). He’s fared particularly poorly this season, allowing eleven runs (ten earned) on eighteen hits and eleven walks with just eight strike outs across fifteen frames."

Was this a salary dump? Was there any legit reason to make this trade?

They seem to have given up on Yang kind of quickly. I wonder if there was something behind the scenes that caused that.

It makes zero sense to me. Surely Santana will be the first to be DFAed when they need another roster spot.

Perhaps Crawler deserves some credit re: Dodgers

Say what you will about Wash, but he would have made Lyles haul his ass back to the mound and hand him the ball properly.

This is who Chris Young traded away;

The Dodgers acquired 21-year-old left-handed pitcher Kelvin Bautista. The highest level he’s pitched at is the Arizona Summer League and Dominican Summer League. He last pitched in 2019, where he posted a 2.48 ERA in 14 games. Bautista struck out 46 in 29 innings.

And we still won't get the top draft pick.

Who determines what a team's expectations should be in a major rebuild?
