They're at the top of the WC standings and behind the Dodgers by 2 games
or so.
They need another reliable starter or two, as well as batting help.
Their farm system was rated around the middle at the start of the
season. Bart, the #2 pick of his draft class, has shown no signs he
will live up to his draft. In fact Bailey may take the starting
catching job from now on, indefinitely.
Not sure whom they can trade for.
Nor whether they will look for big moves in free agency, starting with
bidding on Ohtani. If nothing else, they have to make sure the price is
expensive if some other teams sign him. And right now, Dodgers are
considered one of the favorites.
