All eyes are on the Los Angeles Dodgers as the trade deadline creeps closer and LA is known to be a major buyer ahead of the final two months of the regular sea
With Blake Snell set to return to the starting rotation, the Dodgers might consider parting ways with Dustin May ahead of the MLB trade deadline.
Snell spent time with the San Diego Padres, then signed a deal with the San Francisco Giants after the 2023 season, which he later opted out of to enter free agency in 2024. The 32-year-old veteran signed a five-year, $182 million contract this offseason with the Los Angeles Dodgers after an exceptional 2024 campaign.
Kelly, 37, pitched for the Dodgers from 2019 to 2021 and then again from the 2023 deadline until the end of 2024. The first stint was more successful than the second one. From 2019 to 2021, Kelly had a 3.59 earned run average over 105 1/3 innings for the Dodgers. He struck out 26.9% of batters faced and got grounders at a 59.9% clip.
The Minnesota Twins would trade Jhoan Duran but the return may be too rich for the Los Angeles Dodgers to consider.
