What happened: The Dodgers are evaluating their outfield prospect depth as they weigh what to include in trade packages before the August 3 deadline. Los Angeles enters the window at 64-36, the best record in the pack of teams currently pursuing upgrades.
Why it matters: Los Angeles has already been described as the deadline's most aggressive buyer, with reported interest in rotation help. Outfield prospect capital gives the front office currency to fund those pursuits without touching the major-league roster.
By the numbers: Los Angeles is 64-36, scoring 5.3 runs per game while allowing 3.8, and has won two straight.
What to watch: Watch which names surface in specific trade packages as the August 3 deadline nears.
