Prediction Pairs Dodgers With Steven Kwan in Emmet Sheehan Trade Idea
The concept reflects Los Angeles’ left-field need, with Cleveland’s budget-conscious roster planning offering a plausible match.
Overview
- Bleacher Report’s Zachary Rymer predicted a one-for-one swap sending left fielder Steven Kwan to the Dodgers for right-hander Emmet Sheehan.
- Sporting News and Newsweek amplified the prediction as an offseason idea, and there is no reporting of active negotiations or an agreement.
- Los Angeles struggled to stabilize left field in 2025, highlighted by Michael Conforto’s .199 season and limited impact from other options.
- Kwan’s appeal centers on elite defense and contact skills, with two All-Star selections, three Gold Gloves and a career .281 average fitting the Dodgers’ needs.
- Sheehan posted a 6-3 record with a 2.82 ERA in 12 starts and remains under team control through 2029, with the Dodgers’ rotation depth cited as a reason he could be moved.
