The trade deadline is tomorrow and — if the last few weeks are any indication — the Dodgers need some bullpen help. Evan Phillips has regressed, Daniel Hudson has struggled, Blake Treinen is taking the recent political news hard and Alex Vesia appears to be gassed.

The Pittsburgh Pirates are eyeing a potential trade for Brent Rooker from the Oakland Athletics to boost their batting lineup significantly. Rooker's exceptional performance this season makes him a top hitter, with impressive stats including a .401 wOBA and 168 wRC+. Despite criticisms about his strikeout rate and defensive capabilities, Rooker's expected performance remains high. If the Pirates pursue Rooker, his offensive potential could thrive in a more hitter-friendly environment compared to Oakland.

For the money, there isn’t really a worse hitter than Tigers shortstop Javy Báez. He ranks near (or at) the bottom in virtually every hitting metric this season, and his abysmal plate discipline makes for an easy matchup whenever a pitcher gets Báez in a two-strike count.
