Dodgers Go Big: LA Predicted to Land Brewers Superstar in…
Los Angeles is the reigning World Series champions, but that won’t stop the club from being aggressive this winter. The Dodgers have been linked to a handful of players already, including New York Yankees star Juan Soto.
There are other ways the club could improve, though. The Dodgers are going to need to take a look at the bullpen this winter and should be considering the trade market as a way to improve. Los Angeles has a fantastic farm system that could help get any deal done.
Because of Los Angeles’ need in the bullpen and capability to seemingly land any player it wants, Newsweek’s Zach Pressnell mentioned the Dodgers as a fit for Brewers star Devin Williams.
“The Los Angeles Dodgers could begin to have a money problem if they continue to spend the way that some insiders project them to,” Pressnell said. “Los Angeles has been connected to just about every big-name free agent just a year after issuing over $1 billion last free agency.
“To save money, Los Angeles could bring Williams to the West Coast rather than signing an elite closer such as Tanner Scott for a ton of money across three or four seasons. Los Angeles has some top starting pitching prospects that they could move in the deal.”
Los Angeles could bolster its bullpen with one of the best closers in baseball while not taking on too much more salary. The Dodgers would have to give up a lot prospect-wise to get the Brewers to the negotiating table, but this seems like the type of move Los Angeles wouldn’t be afraid to make.
