Dodgers: Examining LA’s Insanely Deep Lineup with Addition of Trea Turner

With out a doubt the Dodgers won this year’s trade deadline. Trading for Royal’s lefty Danny Duffy didn’t satisfy many fans. Nor did it satisfy the likes of Andrew “GOAT” Friedman. The magician himself was able acquire both Max Scherzer and Trea Turner for a pretty sizable prospect package.

While it ultimately did cost them switch hitting catcher Keibert Ruiz and right-hander Josiah Gray, if it helps Los Angeles win back-to-back titles then it may be well with it. Scherzer helps fill a depleted rotation while Turner can help provide a much needed spark that has been lacking at times.
