He is a finalist for the National League rookie of the year and Cy Young awards, which will be announced next week.

Two-time Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell would be the most obvious name for the Dodgers to pursue.

Corbin Burnes is a former Cy Young winner whom the Dodgers had trade interest in last year, though is projected to command even more money than Snell, which might price him out of the Dodgers’ plans.

In 1981, he became the the first, and remains to this day the only, player to win the National League Cy Young and Rookie of the Year awards in the same season.

Their rotation remains in need of reinforcements, in a year when the free-agent market is headlined by two former Cy Young award winners whom they’ve had interest in, Blake Snell and Corbin Burnes, and might include 23-year-old Japanese star Roki Sasaki if he is posted by his Nippon Professional Baseball club.
