You are correct about the Dodgers, but I am skeptical about Lux at SS and I don't know who else is willing to spend for Correa. And at least the Dodgers know the number now and they are not on the hook for his full salary - and maybe they can trade him. But you're also right it's probably moot because they want Ohtani. The Red Sox? Yankees? Do the Giants come back into the mix?
