The Los Angeles Dodgers are reportedly interested in acquiring Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes, particularly after facing injuries to their starting rotation. Skenes boasts an impressive 2.15 ERA and 77 strikeouts this season, drawing attention from several around MLB who urge the Pirates to trade him. Former GM Jim Bowden suggested a potential trade package involving top Dodgers prospects, allowing the Pirates to improve their lineup while providing the Dodgers with a formidable playoff rotation. The Dodgers hope to bolster their rotation, already weakened by injuries to key players.
The Dodgers could offer the Pirates a long-term answer at catcher (Rushing) and a solution for left field (Pages), improving their lineup for this season and years to come.
The Dodgers’ postseason rotation, if healthy, could be Skenes, Yamamoto, Snell, Ohtani, and Glasnow, making it look quite unbeatable.
