With last week’s multi-team blockbuster trade that would send Mookie Betts and David Price to the Los Angeles Dodgers still in limbo, the teams involved are working to salvage the deal, according to multiple reports. The snag from Tuesday’s trade that primarily involves the Dodgers and Boston Red Sox is the participation of the third club, the Minnesota Twins. The original deal was supposed to send Betts and Price to the Dodgers. The Red Sox would get outfielder Alex Verdugo from the Dodgers and hard-throwing 21-year-old prospect Brusdar Graterol from the Twins, while Minnesota would receive Dodgers right-hander Kenta Maeda. “The proposed trades between the Dodgers, Red Sox, Twins and Angels need to be resolved without further delay,” Tony Clark, executive director of the MLBPA, said on Friday, according to the Los Angeles Times.
