Dodgers deadline plans: How a top-heavy lineup could be bolstered this month
Briefly

Almost every day, the top half of the Dodgers batting order remains consistent, with Mookie Betts leading off and Shohei Ohtani producing MVP-caliber numbers behind him.
The Nos. 1-5 spots in the Dodgers lineup have a .284 batting average and .881 OPS, the best in MLB, but the Nos. 6-9 spots lag behind in both metrics, prompting concerns and speculation about deadline plans.
Despite leading the National League West and boasting a strong offensive force, the Dodgers front office is considering ways to improve the bottom half of their lineup for a better postseason push, alongside potentially acquiring another front-line pitcher.
Manager Dave Roberts emphasizes the organization's constant quest for upgrades, indicating a desire to enhance the team further through potential trade deadline moves.
