Jim Borden,a former major league manager and currently active as a columnist for the American sports media The Athletic, gave the Los Angeles Dodgers an A+ score in the trade deadline report card on the 1st.

Following the signing of veteran left-hander Danny Duffy the ex Kansas City player,ahead of the trade deadline, the Dodgers signed a blockbuster trade with Washington, bringing in three-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer and top-notch shortstop Trey Turner in the league.The Dodgers,who were reluctant to leak prospects from the trade market, were different this year.He gave away four prospects,including robert Lewis (catcher), who is ranked No. 1 in the team's prospect ranking, and Josiah Gray, the best pitching prospect.

This is proof that it was so urgent. Trevor Bauer, who has been on hiatus for a long time due to an investigation into violence against women, does not know when he will return.Scherzer was hired to fill that void.In a situation where the attack power was dropping due to the injuries of the beasts, the turner reinforced both the attack power and the mobility.Borden said,We secured the number one pitcher Scherzer and number one fielder Turner in the trade market with one blockbuster trade.It was the best trade in the deadline.

But fans remain skeptical. The thickness of the mound has improved with the signing of Scherzer and Duffy, but these are starting pitchers.Reinforcement of the bullpen,which has been unstable recently,has not been clearly achieved.In the postseason, some pitchers, including Tony Gonsolin will move to the bullpen, but there has been no clear finish or recruitment of a setup man to be responsible for the team's 8th and 9th innings.

Kenley Jansen,who has recently lost much of the trust of Dodgers fans, continues to be uneasy.The splendid career of 334 saves has been pushed back, and several blow saves are more marked.Manager Dave Roberts is showing a strong belief in Jansen, but he is feeling troubled by the bench,such as climbing the mound in the 8th, which is not burdensome in recent appearances.

Rather, Blake Trainen,who is more stable, is concerned about being overused due to frequent backing.It was the same with Joe Kelly who had less faith at the crucial moment, and Jimmy Nelson,Hani's setup man card, also had a question mark in the postseason.In this situation,there were reports that the Dodgers were interested in finishing such as Craig Kimbrel and Raisel Iglesias, but the Dodgers focused on a deal with Washington.

No matter how far you go, you can't win if you can't stop from behind.The Dodgers have a memory of being nervous or crying over Jansen's troubles in the recent postseason.However, in this trade market, paradoxically, he has shown a message that he trusts Jansen.The evaluation of the local media that the Dodgers are gambling cannot be taken lightly.
