Dodgers Rumors: Dodgers that could get dealt at the trade deadline
By Jason Reed
Despite being in the midst of a great season, the Dodgers rumors continue to circle in Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles Dodgers are having a pretty good 2017. After starting the season off in mediocre fashion, the team has bounced back to be one of the best in baseball. Some say it was the call up of Cody Bellinger, who has hit the cover off the baseball and has provided a spark on the field and in the clubhouse.
Others have said that it is merely the team coming into its full potential. The team may not have the best record in baseball, or even in their own division, but they seem to be the most complete team in baseball. The Dodgers depth gears them for a deep playoff push, something that is not as certain over in Colorado or Arizona.
The Astros over in the AL are perhaps the only team deeper than the Dodgers, but they are struggling with injury problems. The great bats and pitching will allow them to remain in first in the weak AL West, but these injuries could become a problem down the stretch.
The Dodgers have faced their own injury issues, but they have handled it masterfully. Whether it be manipulating the 10 day DL, or getting huge impacts from AAA call-ups such as Bellinger or Chris Taylor, they have not missed a beat.
However, at the other end of the spectrum, this depth is causing Dodgers rumors and potential trade situations. The Dodgers are reportedly targeting more pitchers at the deadline, and to get said pitchers they are going to have to give up some big league talent.
Therefore, with that being said, let’s take a look at three Dodger players that have a good chance of being dealt at the trade deadline.
