The Los Angeles Dodgers destroyed the New York Yankees, 18-2, on Saturday to forcefully take the second game of the World Series rematch. L.A. moved to 36-22 on the year.
Ahead of the eventual slugfest, the Dodgers added a new catcher to the team, but transferred All-Star Tyler Glasnow to the 60-day injured list. The right-hander is still dealing with shoulder inflammation as the move is retroactive to his original IL placement (April 28).
Additionally, the Pittsburgh Pirates are urged to consider a blockbuster trade and deal Paul Skenes to the Dodgers. The kind of return that Pittsburgh could get for their ace would be plenty, but a talent like Skenes doesn’t come around very often.
