The MLB trade deadline is just days away, and it sounds like you can rely on the Los Angeles Dodgers as one of the teams that are going to make some noise.
According to MLB Network’s Jon Morosi, the Dodgers like their chances of acquiring a star pitcher by Monday’s 4 p.m. ET deadline.
Yu Darvish, in particular, has been tied to trade rumors with the Dodgers. The Texas Rangers right-hander has a list of 10 teams that he won’t waive his no-trade clause for, but L.A. is not one of them.
The Dodgers have a pretty comfortable lead atop the National League West, but Clayton Kershaw’s injury probably has intensified the team’s efforts to bring in an arm.
Kershaw should be back for the postseason, though, and complementing him with a pitcher of Darvish, Sonny Gray or Justin Verlander’s caliber would make Los Angeles a World Series front-runner.
