Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register reported information on the trade.
#Dodgers tried to get Brian Dozier instead of Logan Forsythe two years ago but wouldn’t give up Walker Buehler or Cody Bellinger in deal.

Plunkett reported further information.
Dozier and Forsythe are near match in salaries — remainder of $9m for Dozier, $8.5m for Forsythe.

Plunkett continued.
If Double-A OF Luke Raley is included in #Dodgers deal for Dozier, he was considered a player on the rise. Carried .848 OPS in Cal League last year into Double-A this year (.822 with 17 HRs). Not easy to do.
