Dodgers Select Multiple Pitchers in 2025 MLB Draft Rounds 11-15

The Los Angeles Dodgers have been active in both the 2025 MLB Draft and the trade market as they prepare for a strong season. In the draft, the Dodgers selected promising pitchers including Dylan Tate in the 11th round, Logan Lunceford in the 12th round, and Cam Leiter in the second round, alongside outfielder Landyn Vidourek in the third round, focusing on players with high upside despite some recent injuries. On the trade front, the Dodgers are competing with several teams to acquire top relievers such as Jhoan Duran from the Minnesota Twins to bolster a bullpen that has struggled this season, particularly with Tanner Scott blowing multiple saves. These moves are part of the front office's strategy under president Andrew Friedman to enhance the team’s chances for a second consecutive World Series title. Additionally, the Dodgers recently secured a gritty extra-innings win over the Giants, maintaining momentum as they approach the trade deadline. While the Dodgers continue building their roster with a mix of young talent and potential key midseason acquisitions, their storied legacy as one of MLB’s crown jewel franchises remains a backdrop to their current efforts.
