The Los Angeles Dodgers are eyeing a trade for Detroit Tigers infielder Gleyber Torres ahead of the 2026 MLB trade deadline. According to ESPN analysts, Los Angeles is among the top contenders for Torres, who has reworked his game to emphasize on-base percentage. This season, Torres has recorded a.280 batting average with four home runs and 18 RBIs in 43 games. With a reported 80% chance of being traded this summer, adding Torres could bolster the Dodgers' infield batting, though his $22 million contract may pose challenges.
