TRAYCE THOMPSON TRADED TO THE DODGERS
The Los Angeles Dodgers acquired outfielder Trayce Thompson from the Detroit Tigers for cash.
What does it give the Los Angeles Dodgers
With Mookie Betts currently sidelined due to a rib issue, the Dodgers will look to Thompson to serve a platoon role in right field while Betts is out.
What does it give the Detroit Tigers
The Tigers have plenty of young outfielders, so Thompson was deemed expendable at this time. They will receive some cash back.
Fantasy impact
There is no need to pick Thompson up at this time, as he will probably only play against left-handed pitching. Also, he is likely to be designated for assignment once Betts returns to the lineup.
