Dodgers: An Early Look at Trade Deadline Reliever Trade Targets
Tayron Guerrero
The Marlins remain a team in rebuild mode but they still have an intriguing reliever target in Taron Guerrero. Last year the Dodgers were linked to Drew Steckenrider and Adam Conley, but both relievers have seen regression since last year’s trade deadline. Guerrero, on the other hand, has seen his stock rise.
Tayron Guerrero is a flame thrower who can hit 100 miles per hour on the radar gun with ease and his fastball is averaging 98.3 miles per hour this season. In ten appearances, batters are hitting just .097 against Tayron with eleven strikeouts per nine innings.
While his control can still be spotty at times, Guerrero can be a lights out reliever when he is in control of the strike zone. With four years of control left, Tayron won’t come cheap but he would give the Dodgers another flame thrower to pair with Joe Kelly.
