Dodgers proposed to trade six prospects for Nationals stars
Summary

Former GM Jim Bowden suggested a trade for the Los Angeles Dodgers to bolster their roster after a postseason sweep. Bowden's proposal includes trading six prospects, including starting pitchers Justin Wrobleski and Emmet Sheehan, to the Washington Nationals in exchange for stars James Wood and CJ Abrams. He believes this would provide the Dodgers with younger, more athletic players. Bowden acknowledges the complexity of such a deal and suggests smaller alternatives, but emphasizes the need for the Dodgers to improve at certain positions if they aim for success next season.
