ESPN Reports: Dodgers displays courageous approach by taking risk to strenghten roster via a blockbuster trade worth….

The Los Angeles Dodgers have been working to improve upon a team that has already been subjected to championship competition during one of the most remarkable offseasons in recent history.

As if the gap that exists between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the rest of the baseball world wasn’t already quite wide enough, the Los Angeles Dodgers have been linked to yet another All-Star player. This player has been speculated to be a potential third baseman for the Dodgers for quite some time.

Los Angeles Dodgers would benefit from the senior leadership of Nolan Arenado, who would also bring ten Gold Glove trophies and another consistent bat to the team. Not to mention the fact that he was born in Newport Beach, California, approximately one hour away from Dodger Stadium.

During the winter, Arenado dropped quite a few signals that he was going to leave the Dodgers and join his local team. This had fans of the Dodgers on their toes. During this offseason, he has posted two cryptic messages on Instagram that are related to the Dodgers. However, he has also blocked a deal that would have sent him to the Houston Astros, who are his hated rivals, in the middle of December.

There was a post on Arenado’s Instagram account in December that featured the song “dodger blue” by the Los Angeles-based rapper Kendrick Lamar. The post also featured photographs of the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and Crypto.com Arena, which is the home of the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association, in addition to pictures of Arenado and his family.

A video of Major League Baseball veteran Manny Ramírez hitting a home run while he was playing in Cleveland was also included in Arenado’s aforementioned post, which was posted earlier this month. Ramírez, who had a career spanning 19 years, was a fan favorite with the Dodgers, where he spent three seasons of his career.

Zachary D. Rymer, an MLB insider for Bleacher Report, shares the most recent information regarding Arenado. Rymer noted the trade conversations that were taking place between Arenado and his present team at the same time that the president of baseball operations for the St. Louis Cardinals referred to the process of trading the veteran as a “top priority” earlier in this summer.

There were a number of teams that were mentioned as possible destinations for Arenado, including the New York Mets and Yankees, the Philadelphia Phillies, and the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Although Arenado has outstanding defensive credentials and a reputation that follows him, it does not appear probable that he will be traded before Opening Day. The Dodgers appear to be committed to Max Muncy as their third baseman.
