US EditionDodgers Announce Trade Amid 5-Game Losing Streak
LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, JUL 9 – The Dodgers traded Steward Berroa for cash to open a roster spot after designating him for assignment; Brewers placed him on injured list and optioned him to Triple-A.
- The Los Angeles Dodgers lost six consecutive games, including back-to-back series sweeps by the Houston Astros and Milwaukee Brewers, ending with a 3-2 loss in 10 innings on July 9, 2025, at American Family Field.
- This losing streak followed a strong 20-win stretch in 30 games during June and early July but was driven by injuries to key players and a worn-down pitching staff, weakening the team's performance.
- The Dodgers have scored only 10 runs in the last six games, including four runs in the three losses at Milwaukee, while notable players like Edman and Hernandez have just returned from injuries.
- Manager Dave Roberts encouraged the team to show more competitive at-bats and maintain steady defense, expressing confidence that improvement would come. Veteran Miguel Rojas emphasized the need for the team to raise their level of play.
- The team’s management is actively exploring trade possibilities before the July 31 deadline, as demonstrated by their recent transaction sending outfielder Steward Berroa, who was in the minors, to Milwaukee in exchange for monetary compensation.
