Dodgers' trade deadline focus identified as health for roster

As the MLB trade deadline approaches on August 3, the Los Angeles Dodgers indicated their primary concern is player health. With several key players, including Will Smith and Enrique Hernandez, currently on the injured list, the Dodgers have stated that their need is simply to 'just get healthy.' Their pitching staff faces significant injuries, missing four starters, including Tyler Glasnow and Blake Snell. Despite these setbacks, the team remains a World Series favorite, suggesting they have built depth to manage injuries effectively. The Dodgers may look to the trade market, but their focus remains on returning their wounded players to the lineup.
