Tuesday and Wednesday are usually the busiest days of the winter meetings and while the Dodgers were not involved in any transactions yesterday, the rumor mill continued to spin. The biggest rumor involved the Reds and the Dodgers and LA’s surplus of starting pitchers and outfielders. Turner Ward is now the Reds’ hitting coach so it would be a reunion for the duo of Puig and Ward.
There were also whispers that the Dodgers could take on Homer Bailey’s contract which is 23 million in 2019 and 25 million in 2020. Bailey does have a buyout for 2020 which is five million so it could be a move to acquire prospects in return for taking on a bad contract.
