Today we have some hot news about our beloved Los Angeles team. If you never miss a play, stick around until the end of this video because there's an exciting twist at the end. The Dodgers have just completed their first big trade of the 2024 MLB trade deadline! And, my friends, this trade involves not one, not two, but three teams: the St. Louis Cardinals, the Chicago White Sox, and of course, our Dodgers. Our team has acquired right-handed pitcher Michael Kopech from the White Sox and utility player Tommy Edman from the Cardinals. In exchange, the Dodgers sent former top prospect Miguel Vargas to the White Sox, along with two other prospects. The Cardinals are receiving right-handed pitcher Erick Fedde and outfielder Tommy Pham from the White Sox. Let's talk a bit about what these new additions bring to the team. First, Michael Kopech. He is one of the fastest pitchers in MLB. This season, he has posted a 4.74 ERA, 59 strikeouts, and a 1.35 WHIP in 43 bullpen appearances. Kopech started his career as a starter but has fully transitioned to a reliever this year. And what about Tommy Edman? This guy is a true Swiss Army knife on the field. Unfortunately, he has been on the injured list all season due to wrist surgery he had in the offseason. But according to MLB.com, he is expected to return in early August. Edman, 29, is one of the best infield defenders, having won a Gold Glove in 2021. Last year, he had a solid season with 13 home runs, 47 RBIs, and 119 hits in 528 plate appearances. Now, the most exciting part: Miguel Vargas. At just 24 years old, Vargas has spent his entire career with the Dodgers since signing as an international free agent in September 2017. He stood out as an elite hitter in the minor leagues, and although he has struggled in the past to establish himself in the majors, 2024 has been a year of more consistency for him.
