| 5/20/25 | Dodgers urged to trade for 2-time All-Star reliever from floundering Orioles. The question is not if the Los Angeles Dodgers will make a big trade in 2025, but who that big trade will see them acquire. In their relentless pursuit of back-to-back championships, the Dodgers showed no mercy to the other 29 Major League Baseball teams with their offseason acquisitions. The same should be expected at the Jul. 31 trade deadline. One might think the Dodgers' bullpen couldn't possibly use any more upgrades after the offseason signings of Kirby Yates and Tanner Scott.
