Dodgers Consider $116M Trade for All-Star Infielder Marte

News summary

The Los Angeles Dodgers are actively exploring roster changes this offseason, particularly at second base, with strong interest in Arizona Diamondbacks' All-Star Ketel Marte, who is under a lucrative long-term contract but may be traded as the D-Backs look to retool. Despite the rivalry and potential high cost, Marte's offensive prowess could address the Dodgers' current struggles at second base, where their platoon has produced a notably low OPS. Concurrently, the Dodgers are considering releasing Michael Conforto due to his underperformance, which would open opportunities for returning injured players and positional adjustments. Max Muncy, despite being 35 and dealing with injuries, is expected to return next season, with the Dodgers likely exercising his $10 million club option based on his strong offensive output since a slow start. Meanwhile, the Dodgers are also addressing bullpen concerns but reportedly showed limited interest in acquiring top relievers Griffin Jax and Jhoan Duran from the Twins, possibly due to valuation or asking price issues. Overall, the Dodgers appear poised for targeted offseason moves to strengthen key positions while managing salary and roster flexibility as they contend in the NL West.
