While most of the offseason’s heavy-lifting has been completed, the Los Angeles Dodgers still have some work to do to round out the 40-man roster for the 2017 season.

After re-signing the three major internal free agents, the club’s biggest remaining need is finding a solution to the woes against left-handed pitching from a year ago.

A future trade for Dozier shouldn’t be ruled out completely, whether later this offseason or closer to the non-waiver trade deadline, because of the extensive framework done by both teams.
