The 74-31 Dodgers have been humming along at a nearly unprecedented clip for a while, but that doesn't guarantee playoff success and one of the spots they needed to upgrade was a late-inning, left-handed reliever. Enter former Pirates closer Tony Watson, as multiple reports indicate the Dodgers have swung a deal for the lefty. The Pirates' return is two still-unknown minor leaguers, per Joel Sherman of the New York Post.
Watson, 32, is a rental as he'll hit free agency after this season. He started the season as the Pirates' closer, but faltered early and lost the job.
