The Dodgers were not too active during the 2022 trade deadline. They were in on the Juan Soto sweepstakes, among other players on the trading block. Ultimately, they didn’t land Soto but instead traded for then-Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo.
Gallo struggled mightly in New York and was only slightly better with the Boys in Blue.
In 44 games with L.A., Gallo slashed .162/.277/.393 with an OPS of .671 with seven home runs and 23 RBIs.
Since being traded to New York from the Texas Rangers in the summer of 2021, he hasn’t been the same.
That is why MLB writer Will Leitch wants to see a Gallo-Ranger reunion.
