Trade Update: Dodgers Could Trade $5.4 Million Pitcher To AL Contender In Shocking Move

The Los Angeles Dodgers have more pitching than spots available.

They came into the offseason with a plethora of starting pitchers but only added more to the rotation.

Los Angeles is set to return Tony Gonsolin and Dustin May from injuries that kept them both off the field for all of last season.

Shohei Ohtani is set to return to the mound as well.

The Dodgers also opted to sign Blake Snell and Roki Sasaki in free agency. Pair this duo with Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Clayton Kershaw, Tyler Glasnow and the return of the three injured pitchers and you begin to see how stacked the Dodgers are.

With all these pitchers, the Dodgers could capitalize on the depth and trade one of their arms in a deal with the Baltimore Orioles.

The pitcher that makes the most sense to be moved is Gonsolin.

The righty is on the sideline with an injury right now, but he’s set to return in the near future.

A trade for the righty would likely include outfielder Heston Kjerstad as the centerpiece.

Kjerstad doesn’t have a direct path to playing time in Baltimore, but he may be able to contend for at-bats as a platoon option with the Dodgers.

A trade like this would work wonders for the Orioles who are already down Corbin Burnes.

Baltimore hasn’t done much of anything to replace their former ace, so a deal to add a proven starter like Gonsolin could be a huge addition. Losing the righty wouldn’t do much harm to the Dodgers.

Bringing in the prospects in return for him would help boost the farm system to improve the next crop of Dodgers stars.
