The Dodgers didn’t trade for Juan Soto and the Angels didn’t trade Shohei Ohtani, but each team still accomplished something it needed to do at the trade deadline.
Major League Baseball’s trade deadline is, if nothing else, an annual invitation to embrace a sense of desperation about your team. This is an easy invitation for fans to accept. Front offices occasionally join in.
For the Dodgers, the calculus is slightly less complicated than, well, calculus. Their big get was outfielder Joey Gallo, who arrives with more modest expectations than his resume would suggest. At 28, he’s a two-time All-Star and two-time Gold Glove Award winner. The Dodgers sent Double-A pitcher Clayton Beeter to the New York Yankees in return.
There is a significant gap between the true talent levels of Soto and Gallo. The Dodgers’ interest in Soto, a 23-year-old perennial MVP candidate who has been compared to Ted Williams, is understandable. Other than Freddie Freeman and Gavin Lux, the Dodgers aren’t getting the offensive production they coveted from their left-handed hitters.
Deciphering the Angels’ desired window for contention is much more difficult. They traded Noah Syndergaard to the Philadelphia Phillies for outfielders Mickey Moniak and Jadiel Sanchez. In a separate trade, they sent Brandon Marsh to Philadelphia for catcher Logan O’Hoppe, a top-100 prospect who recently appeared in the Futures Game at Dodger Stadium. Closer Raisel Iglesias went to Atlanta for pitchers Jesse Chavez and Tucker Davidson.
