Los Angeles Dodgers star Mookie Betts, mired in one of the worst slumps of his career, was benched for Saturday night’s game against the Milwaukee Brewers.

After a rough month of July, Shohei Ohtani brought the Dodgers offense back to life with a monster bomb vs. the Brewers.

The Brewers occupy an interesting space as a small-market franchise enjoying consistent success, especially as an MLB labor stoppage looms.

Freeland is a well-regarded prospect with nearly a full season of Triple-A experience to his credit. He would be part of most big-league rosters at this point. The Dodgers, though, don't have a clear role for him, which is why I'm including him here as a dark horse candidate for a team in need of a shortstop.
