The Los Angeles Dodgers have gone through a bit of a rough stretch lately, though it's not something to be overly worried about.
But, they still need to make some changes, and they did just that with a trade for a new center fielder. This deal came within the NL West.
According to Francys Romero of Beisbolfr.com, the Dodgers have traded a 17-year-old outfield prospect to the Arizona Diamondbacks for recently designated for assignment outfielder Alek Thomas.
Dodgers trade for Alek Thomas from D-Backs
"The D-back traded OF Alek Thomas to the Dodgers for Venezuelan OF Jose Requena, per sources," Romero reports.
This move for the Dodgers is an interesting one. Jose Requena is a 17-year-old outfield prospect, while Thomas has been a solid defensive center fielder and could be a left-handed hitting bat off the bench for L.A. this season.
