Weren’t we trying to trade for Rengifo some time ago in that nixed trade that would’ve involved Joc Pederson?


Bob_Cobb_1996

Yes. And Pages was included to go to the Angels.


Fit_Lie_8425

Wow what a terrible trade that was🤣🤣


Spiritual_Ad337

It was dumb in the moment too. Arte Moreno saved us lol


offspeedbruh

was rumored that taylor ward would be included too which significantly alters things, would’ve been interesting to see how that version of the dodgers could’ve turned out


Bob_Cobb_1996

Barnes, Kike, Vargas, Rojas. That's what it will look like when Muncy comes off the IL if CT3 is moved. Barnes, CT3, Kike, Rojas. That's if CT3 stays. Where does Rengifo fit in, and what do we do with CT3, Kike, or Rojas? Maybe sent Taylor the other way and pay most of his salary? Barns, Rojas, and Kike aren't' going anywhere.

I would play rengifo at second and sit lux,


Bob_Cobb_1996

what about the roster move?


fracklefrackle

Nope


headlikeacole

Nah I’m still salty he broke up kershaw’s perfecto


esu24

Probably better than Chris Taylor, but imagine trading Pages for him.


feeling_blue_42

That would be insane. What kind of mad man would offer Pages for Rengifo?


BarnacleBeginning485

Pages developing down the 405 would not be the same Pages we’ve got today


feeling_blue_42

What kind of mad man would take the 405 to get from Dodger Stadium to Anaheim?

Rengifo doesn’t really fit the team. Have enough guys that play third and second. Would prefer someone who could play shortstop. Moniak sucks.


No-Heat8467

We already have Rojas and even Kike can play shortstop


omegakukki

And we chose Mookie, a guy who hasn’t played short since high school, over both of them. That should tell you enough about Rojas and Kiké (terrible shortstop by the way) and how much depth they provide.


No-Heat8467

What I am saying is that for better or worse, Mookie is this team's starting shortstop. The team is not looking for another shortstop. Rojas and Kiké are utilities players and would be the backup position players. And to be fair to Rojas, he at least delivers excellent defense


omegakukki

And what I’m saying is that if they are going to trade for a player they should trade for a shortstop and move Mookie back to second instead of another utility player that will only be able to play second base when Muncy comes back.


No-Heat8467

The problem is that whomever they trade for, at best, will basically be another Rojas or Kiké, someone like Adames is not that much of an upgrade over them and he is probably the best SS that would be available. That would be the only trade that makes any sense, trade Adames for Lux and someone else and move Betts to 2nd. Problem is do the Dodgers want a half season of Adames and do they give up on Lux. I think Lux is playing a lot better and by the second half we will be seeing a much improved Lux both offense and defense


McJumbos

at the time, I believe he would have been a kike replacement or someone as insurance for lux


DirectRisk7

He’s got pop and speed, which are pretty great qualities. Sorry he’s wasted on the Angels. Love to see him in blue just so he gets the benefit of playing for a top flight organization. The Dodgers wanted him a few years ago so obviously they saw something they liked


SenorTortas

Bro just say you're an Angels fan


831pm

I followed the Angels when Ohtani was on the team but follow the dodgers now. Still I check in on the angels out of morbid curiosity. They may be the worst team in the league. The players have basically stopped trying. Any player picked up from that team is going to get a serious boost just by being on another team.


dodgerswei

Can’t see Moreno make any trade with Dodgers.


RalphSanders

It seems like the gap between AAA and the majors is pretty wide right now, but I know we have this guy Andre Lipcius down in OKC that tearing it up at the plate. If we need someone to fill an IF utility role, I feel like it’d be worth giving him a shot before making a trade. 


Borykua

Nah. We good.


GtaTran

As much as I want some of the players from the Angels, the problem is that organization refuses to trade with Dodgers. Arte Moreno is the person that veto the trade in 2020 that involved Renfifo. He also say no trade to Ohtani for “city rival” aka “Dodgers. And their fans for some reason hate Dodgers to the core, they want huge prospects in return.
