Rumors of the Dodgers acquiring Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado heated up thanks to former baseball executive Jim Bowden. During his MLB Network Radio show “Inside Pitch”, Bowden predicted that the Dodgers would acquire Arenado before Christmas.
After Bowden set the internet on a fire for a day or two, ESPN’s Buster Onley threw cold water on the idea. Onley stated that there were “monumental impediments” in the Dodgers trading for Arenado.
