Craig Edwards analyzes the Dodgers/Red Sox/Twins deal. Edwards’s opinion, and others I’m seeing this morning seem to indicate that the Red Sox and Twin both made out better in the revised deal, which shows how much the Dodgers wanted Mookie Betts on the team. It’s now World Series title or bust for Los Angeles.

The Dodgers now hold a surplus of outfielders, as they could not complete the trade to the Angels of Joc Pederson. I find that odd, as Pederson is a nice improvement to the Angels. There’s still plenty of time before the season starts, so I expect Pederson to play somewhere else.
