Friday saw three intriguing trades go down around the league, but by far the most interesting one was between the two-time defending NL champion Dodgers and the rebuilding Reds. Based on those descriptions, the two sides of the deal aren’t how you’d expect. The Dodgers are sending away Yasiel Puig, Matt Kemp and Alex Wood and in exchange they receive Homer Bailey, prospects Jeter Downs and Josiah Gray as well as international pool money. The Reds also get some cash in the deal. Bailey is being released immediately as part of the deal.
