Los Angeles Dodgers’ No. 1 trade target revealed in latest MLB trade rumors

The MLB trade deadline is approaching quickly with plenty of Los Angeles Dodgers rumors connecting them to starting pitching, bullpen help and potential additions to the lineup. However, one player is reportedly atop the list of Dodgers trade targets.

While Los Angeles is one of the best teams in baseball, it has plenty of needs. Coming out of the All-Star Break, the Dodgers injured list had Clayton Kershaw, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Tyler Glasnow and Walker Buehler. Meanwhile, the Dodgers lineup remains without Mookie Betts and Max Muncy.

It creates obvious needs for the front office to address this summer. Fortunately, Los Angeles has both the depth in its farm system and quality among the Dodgers top prospects to address multiple needs. While multiple positions will be addressed, one player stands atop the wishlist.

According to ESPN’s Alden Gonzalez, Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Garrett Crochet is known to be atop the wishlist of Dodgers trade targets in 2024. Notably, Los Angeles is even interested in him if it has to convert him into a relief role.

Crochet, age 25, is already well past his previous career-high (54.1) for innings pitched. He’s also struggled a bit more as of late, with his WHIP (1.14) and batting average allowed (.253) sharply increasing over his last five starts. While there’s plenty for Los Angeles to like about him, there’s also risk.
