Los Angeles Dodgers

Besides the Yankees, the Astros have had their fair share of drama with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Once the league revealed the final results of the sign-stealing scandal, the Dodgers were angry about the findings, considering they were the Astros’ opponent in the World Series. That was when Correa clapped back at Cody Bellinger for saying that second baseman Jose Altuve stole the AL MVP award from Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge.

Then, there was the benches-clearing incident last season when Dodgers reliever Joe Kelly threw at Correa and mocked him.

Now, imagine if the Dodgers managed to find a way to sign Correa? If there is one thing we have learned over the years, it is that Los Angeles is no stranger to bringing in superstar players to help them compete for the World Series. Just look at the trade deadline, when the Dodgers acquired pitcher Max Scherzer and infielder Trea Turner in a massive trade with the Washington Nationals.

The Dodgers are technically in the market for a shortstop since Corey Seager is a free agent. Yes, they can hypothetically move Turner over to Seager’s position, but it would certainly be a “Dodgers move” to sign Correa.
