The Los Angeles Dodgers secured a 9–7 win over the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday night, improving their record to 49–31. Key contributions came from Michael Conforto and Shohei Ohtani, who both hit home runs to help take the first game of the series in Denver.
With the trade deadline drawing near, the Dodgers have been linked to a potential blockbuster move involving a former Cy Young Award-winning pitcher. The team is in search of additional pitching depth, and acquiring such a high-level arm could be a major shift in the MLB landscape—if the risk pays off.
In other developments, a former Dodgers pitcher has surprisingly signed with the Chicago White Sox. Out of the league since August 2023, the right-hander is aiming for a return to the majors in a move that caught many around the league off guard.
Meanwhile, former Dodgers ace Walker Buehler is reportedly struggling to hold his spot in the Boston Red Sox rotation. This has led to speculation about whether a reunion with Los Angeles could be on the table. Buehler’s last appearance with the Dodgers helped clinch the team’s eighth World Series title, making him a beloved figure in L.A. regardless of where he ends the season.
As these storylines develop, the Dodgers continue to push through the season with standout performances from stars like Ohtani and Conforto. The trade market, returning players, and possible comebacks are all swirling topics for a team looking to make another deep postseason run.
