Friedman: Dodgers Won’t Trade From Roster To Avoid Luxury Tax

The Dodgers have had a quieter offseason than in recent years, limiting their ac
quisitions primarily to veterans on short-term deals so far. Many had speculated
that the club was planning to dip under the competitive balance tax threshold i
n order to avoid paying the tax for a third year in a row and enter 2024 as a “
first-time” payor. If they had any designs on that kind of approach, they large
ly went out the window when Trevor Bauer’s suspension was reduced, putting $22.
5MM back onto their ledger.

That led some people to wonder if the club would then pivot to trading some sala
ried player to reduce their tax number, but Dodgers president of baseball operat
ions Andrew Friedman has denied that will be a consideration. “No,” Friedman r
esponded to the suggestion, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic. “We’re doing al
l we can to win a championship this year.”

Roster Resource currently calculates the club’s CBT number at $238MM, just $5MM
over the $233MM threshold. Trading some salary to dip back under could be theor
etically possible, though it would come with challenges.
