The Dodgers have been spending a lot of money on stars like Shohei Ohtani and Roki Sasaki and other teams are frustrated by it.

Lantigua, 19, batted .301 with 11 home runs and 42 RBI across 49 games for the Rookie-DSL Dodgers Mega in 2024.

The right-hander is regarded as the best remaining relief arm left on the shelf. Tanner Scott, Kirby Yates and Jeff Hoffman have all recently come off the board. Hoffman, Estévez's now former teammate with the Phillies, joined the Blue Jays, while Scott and Kirby added to the juggernaut that is the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Roki Sasaki signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers broke the baseball world, albeit momentarily. It's tough to blame Andrew Friedman and Co. for taking advantage

Although the weather outdoors certainly doesn’t scream the boys of summer, baseball was the topic of discussion Saturday

Muncy is a two-time All-Star and two-time World Series champion. He hit .232 with 15 home runs and 48 RBIs in 73 RBIs. His career-high is 36 home runs and 105 RBIs, which he accomplished in 2023.

The Dodgers announced that they’ve traded minor league outfielder Arnaldo Lantigua to the Reds for international bonus pool space. Cincinnati is reportedly sending $1.5MM in pool room to the Dodgers. Bonus pool money must be traded in multiples of $250K. Los Angeles now has sufficient funds to finalize their $6.5MM deal with Roki Sasaki.

Executives around MLB have questions about whether there was any funny business involved in Dodgers' signing of Roki Sasaki.

LOS ANGELES ... The Dodgers started with a pool of $5,146,200 but increased it to $8,102,800 with a pair of trades last week, acquiring $1.5 million from Cincinnati and $1,456,600 from Philadelphia.
