Dodgers could land pirates $ 107 million All-Star in place of Michael Comforto, by initiate
The Los Angeles Dodgers must be amazed at what they have obtained this season from Michael Comforto.
Almost everyone supposed that Comforto would be somehow great for dodgers after hanging a one -year contract of $ 17 million this off -season. He was decent for the rivals of the Dodgers, the Giants of San Francisco, but the Dodgers generally seem to be making the most of their veterans.

Instead, Comforto has an average of .173, .602 ops and -1.0 BWAR in 71 games. The Dodgers seem to experiment with more left -back alternatives recently, and a trade before the deadline of July 31 could end up sealing the comforto spell.
Does this business arrive? It is too early to say, but an initiate of baseball has an interesting idea of who the dodgers could acquire.
On Tuesday, Russell Dorsey of Yahoo Sports appointed the Pittsburgh Pirates, Brian Reynolds Pirates, as a potential trade for Dodgers.
“The longtime voltigger Michael Comforto was supposed to fill this need after a high 2024 season, but this success did not follow it at, because Comforto is only 0.173 / .300 / .302 with six circuits and 77 WRC + this season,” wrote Dorsey.

“The start of pitching should be the main concern of dodgers before the trade deadline, but the acquisition of an additional voltijourn which could replace Comforto or allow Teoscar Hernández to return to the left terrain should also be a target. Potential targets: Bryan Reynolds (pirates). “”
Reynolds is only in the third year of an extension of $ 106.75 million over eight years, so it would be a kind of surprise to see him be exchanged. Again, they are the pirates, so all luck they have to save money, they could simply take.
But Reynolds, aged 30, also has only one BWAR of 0.709 and -0.3 BWAR. Do Dodgers really want to sink more money in the outside field, especially for a commitment of 5 1/2 years, just to hope for marginal improvement?
