Dodgers Intrigued With Ian Kennedy
3 years agoTexas Rangers relief pitcher Ian Kennedy could be on the move within the next week or so. The veteran closer is one of the few trade pieces that Texas has to offer right now. The Los Angeles Dodgers have reportedly shown interest in acquiring Kennedy. This season, Kennedy has a 2.59 ERA and 33/7 K/BB ratio over 31 1/3 innings. He has notched 15-of-16 save opportunities during the 2021 season. His fantasy value would likely take a hit with a move to the Dodgers. He wouldn't be asked to pitch in the ninth too often and would likely be a setup option. Fantasy managers benefitting off Kennedy for saves might only get a few more days of value out of him.
