1. Trade for Steven Kwan to Upgrade the Outfield
Proposed Trade: Dodgers get Steven Kwan | Guardians get Gavin Stone, Eduardo Quintero

The Dodgers’ 2025 outfield underperformed with a 94 wRC+, ranking near the league bottom. Steven Kwan would instantly raise the bar. In 156 games, he slashed .272/.330/.374 with 11 homers, while also posting a 99 wRC+ and a 3.2 fWAR.

Kwan would slot into left field, pushing Tommy Edman to second and Andy Pages to center, improving both offense and defense. It’s a big trade package: Eduardo Quintero, a 19-year-old five-tool prospect, and Gavin Stone, a talented pitching arm, but it fits the Dodgers’ win-now mindset.

2. Strengthen the Bullpen with Bryan Abreu
Proposed Trade: Dodgers get Bryan Abreu | Astros get Ben Casparius, Adam Serwinowski

After a disappointing 2025 bullpen, adding Bryan Abreu gives Los Angeles a strikeout-heavy, high-upside arm. Last season, Abreu struck out 105 in 71 innings with a 2.28 ERA and over 2.0 fWAR.

Ben Casparius and Adam Serwinowski provide value to Houston, making this a trade that upgrades LA’s bullpen without overpaying on the free-agent market.
4. Add Depth by Signing Cavan Biggio
Proposed Deal: Minor league contract

To round out the roster, the Dodgers could sign Cavan Biggio to a minor league deal. While 2025 wasn’t great offensively, his elite plate discipline and prior experience in the Dodgers system give LA a versatile depth option if injuries strike.

It’s a low-risk move to put the finishing touches on a roster built to contend in 2026.
