As the dust settles following possibly the most explosive trade deadline in MLB history, most contending teams have had the opportunity to see their new faces perform on the field. Anthony Rizzo had a huge weekend for the Yankees in Miami while Kris Bryant and Javier Baez both homered in their respective debuts in New York and San Francisco, greeted by standing ovations. Craig Kimbrel pitched a scoreless frame for the White Sox. Even Josiah Gray, who the Dodgers sent to Washington in last week’s blockbuster, pitched 5 strong innings in his Nationals debut last night.
For the Dodgers, though, the waiting game continues.
