Everyone is chasing the Los Angeles Dodgers, even when it comes to the names they can bandy about before the Aug. 3 trade deadline. They can do anything, and don’t need to do anything.That gives the Dodgers the freedom to be creative. The Athletic has reported that the Dodgers have discussed the idea of prospect-for-prospect trades even as their major-league roster continues to pile up wins. If the Dodgers add a major piece during this transaction period, they have plenty of prospect depth to come out of it without denting a strong farm system.The core of the Dodgers’ system is their glut of outfielders. One of them is already out the door this deadline period, as the Dodgers traded their third-round pick from a year ago, Landyn Vidourek, to the Colorado Rockies as part of a package for reliever Seth Halvorsen.More outfielders could be moved or used to supplement the roster. So it makes sense to check in on how some of the bigger names at the position are doing. Each grouping is broken up by level.If these outfield prospects were included in Keith Law’s updated top 70, that ranking will be indicated. This is a non-comprehensive list; the Dodgers’ outfield depth extends beyond this group.All numbers are accurate entering July 23.Triple AJames Tibbs III (No. 46)Tibbs, along with Zach Ehrhard (more on him in a bit), were among the biggest coups of last year’s trade deadline. The Dodgers acquired Tibbs, a 2024 first-round pick, from the Red Sox for Dustin May, who went on to make just six appearances for Boston.Tibbs had an electric start to this season but slowed down when he played through a forearm injury that limited him to designated hitter duty. Still, he’s been one of the most dynamic hitters in the minors this season in his first taste of Triple A. Through his first 416 plate appearances, he’s hit .290/.411/.548 with a 143 wRC+.A 16.6 percent walk rate is nothing to sneeze at, mixing that patient approach with enough pop to seemingly give him a strong offensive floor. The lefty has been pretty platoon-neutral this season (.976 OPS in 131 plate appearances against lefties).He’s probably the most major-league ready player among the guys who have yet to debut, though there are still some swing-and-miss concerns (72 percent contact rate this year at Triple A).Ryan WardWard made his long-awaited debut in April and got some run with the big-league club while Teoscar Hernández was on the injured list with a hamstring strain. His 60 plate appearances are still a small sample, but he had some challenges hitting fastballs. Among hitters with that much playing time, Ward’s 40.6 whiff rate on four-seam fastballs was sixth-highest.He’s been a producer in the minors nonetheless. His overall production is down from 2025 (notably with a drop in slugging percentage from .557 to .462), and at 28 years old he is much older than some of the other names on this list. But for clubs looking for immediate production in left field, first base or as a designated hitter, Ward could hold value.
