Dodgers News: Andrew Friedman Believes Alex Verdugo Has ‘Much Higher Floor Than Most’

While a narrative of Los Angeles Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman is that he’s unwilling to trade away prospects, the team’s recent dealings paint a much different picture. Where Friedman hasn’t wavered is in keeping prospects he’s bullish on.

That’s amounted to the Dodgers resisting trade proposals that involved parting with Corey Seager, Julio Urias, Cody Bellinger and Walker Buehler. The next wave of prospects that may enter that group is comprised of Keibert Ruiz and Alex Verdugo, among others.

Working against both youngsters, however, is the Dodgers have organizational depth at catcher and the outfield.
