Los Angeles Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman completed his third trade with the Tampa Bay Rays since he departed the organization in October 2014. Much like his first deal for Adam Liberatore and Joel Peralta, Friedman reunited with a player he holds in high regard in Logan Forsythe.
As Rays general manager, Friedman acquired Forsythe from the San Diego Padres as part of a seven-player trade in January 2014. The 30-year-old infielder was among multiple second basemen the Dodgers were connected to in recent months.
Along with Forsythe, the group was headlined by Ian Kinsler of the Detroit Tigers and Brian Dozier of the Minnesota Twins.
