With the trade deadline three weeks from today, we are living in a world of non-stop rumors. Will the Dodgers get Manny Machado? What about the bullpen? And is Jacob deGrom a real possibility?
But with the deadline comes reminiscing of years past, and a lot of folks are thinking about last year’s deadline. You remember, no? The Dodgers acquired Yu Darvish, Tony Watson and Tony Cingrani on deadline day, and all were key contributors to the Dodgers’ run to the postseason and up through the World Series.
