The Los Angeles Dodgers could consider trading pitcher Eric Lauer as they prepare to welcome back Blake Snell, Edwin Díaz, and Tyler Glasnow this week and Shohei Ohtani soon after. Lauer, who has not lost a game with a 3.35 ERA in eight appearances, may become expendable with the Dodgers aiming to bolster their roster for a playoff run. With multiple key arms returning, the team's depth in pitching could change their current rotation significantly. The Dodgers may look to maximize Lauer’s value before he becomes a free agent at the end of the season.
- •Eric Lauer has a 3.35 ERA through eight games for the Dodgers.
- •He has played a critical role in the rotation during injuries to other pitchers.
- •Blake Snell, Edwin Díaz, and Tyler Glasnow are returning shortly.
- •Lauer could be a key trade asset before he hits free agency.
