BlackSox13 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Sounds like the Dodgers assumed they could find a taker for Morse. The speculated third team was that assumption. Oops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I very well could and would make the Dodgers even more desperate to unload a contract like Ethier's. Not that LA doesn't have the money to waste, lol. I would take on Ethier's contract in exchange for Danks + prospect. Not sure the Dodgers would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about we get a prospect instead? There ya go! But would warrant some cash from Dodgers. He's having a good year, but since June, his OPS is right around .700....nothing special. It's a monetarily expensive risk for ($38 million for 16 and 17, incl buying out 18). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you look at his splits, he's got a .831 OPS against righties! We have plenty of right handed players on the bench, all we'll need is for Robin to use him in a platoon role and he'll be a solid contributor.

Yes, its definitely risky and money would have to come back to the Sox. Enough money to bring Ethier's salary down to match his level of play. Problem is that I doubt the Dodgers would be interested in Danks even though Danks would be a better pitcher in the NLW ball parks. The Dodgers would have to be beyond desperate, imo.

GGajewski18 Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal 2m2 minutes ago #Braves lefty Alex Wood would go to #Dodgers if three-team deal with #Marlins is completed, sources tell me and @jonmorosi. Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal 55s55 seconds ago #Braves reliever Jim Johnson also would go to #Dodgers, sources tell me and @jonmorosi. Morse and compensation pick would go to #Braves. Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal 59s60 seconds ago So, if deal goes through, #Dodgers could end up with Latos and Wood for their rotation and Jim Johnson for their bullpen.

fathom Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I have a feeling Puig is going to Atlanta. Braves are also including highly rated prospect Peraza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 If the Dodgers trade Puig for Wood and Latos that would be insane of them. Wood is a nice piece and young, etc, but Puig is a star and Latos is a FA anyway. I don't think Dodgers would really be moving Puig for that sort of package.
