Following is one of the trade rumors that may involve the Dodgers:
The No. 1 prospect in the Los Angeles Dodgers organization according to Jonathan Mayo, Zach Lee received a $5.25 million signing bonus when he was drafted in the first round in 2010.
The 20-year-old former LSU football recruit put up solid numbers in the hitter-friendly California League where he struck out 52 batters and walked just 10 in 55.1 innings. He recently earned a promotion to Double-A Chattanooga and allowed just one run in his debut.
The Dodgers offense has been absolutely horrendous without Matt Kemp as they were shutout five times in a six game span between June 25-30.
While the Carlos Lee deal fell through, a potential deal for Houston Astros teammate Jed Lowrie was tweeted by Buster Olney with Zach Lee as a part of it.
If the Dodgers plan on acquiring an impact bat to help their anemic lineup, they can bet that teams will be asking about top prospect Zach Lee in return.
The following also suggests the possibility:
However it seems the Pirates are favorites to get him, and the Red Sox are apparently also in the mix. A shortstop who can play 2nd or 3rd base and has scored more HR's than any active Dodger plus he is only 28, would be good for the Dodgers.
