Andrew Friedman ‘Excited’ To Have Joc Pederson & Ross Stripling Remain Dodgers After Angels Trade Falls Through

The last couple of weeks were busy for Los Angeles Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman as he completed two separate trades, one of which was to acquire All-Stars Mookie Betts and David Price from the Boston Red Sox.

After the first reports of the deal came out, it took about five days to complete it as the Red Sox had concerns with former Minnesota Twins prospect Brusdar Graterol’s medicals. He was set to head to Boston in the three-team trade, but instead, the Dodgers added more prospects and took back Graterol for themselves in a separate trade with the Twins to get everything sorted out.
