The Los Angeles Dodgers are looking for bullpen help before the trade deadline. One player the Dodgers are targeting is Addison Reed of the New York Mets.

It's unclear how far along the Dodgers are in a potential trade for Reed. However, Olney's tweet makes it seem like the Dodgers still have plenty of work to do.
The Dodgers are looking for a set-up man and Reed could fill that role. He has a 2.35 ERA and a 1.065 WHIP this year for the Mets, with 16 saves. Of course, Kenley Jansen would remain the Dodgers' closer.

Reed has drawn interest from multiple teams leading up to the trade deadline, including the Brewers and Red Sox. However, he could be cheaper than someone like Brad Hand of the Padres.
