Grading the Dodgers trades

The Dodgers revamped their roster, making some significant trades before the deadline. They have a little more punch in their lineup, but gave up some promising and reliable arms to get them.
The new faces in the Dodgers clubhouse are All Stars Hanley Ramirez and Shane Victorino, starter Joe Blanton and relievers Brandon League and Randy Choate.
Gone are promising pitching prospects Nathan Eovaldi, Josh Lindblom and a batch of minor leaguers.
To be honest, the Dodgers landed quite a haul for the players they gave up. Ramirez will be around for a couple of years and is only 28 years old. Victorino ends the platoon of Juan Rivera and Bobby Abreu in left field. League and Choate might add new life to a lethargic Dodgers bullpen. Blanton adds a veteran arm to the rotation rather than enduring the growing pains that come with nurturing the likes of Eovaldi and Steven Fife.
Here is a look at how the new players will affect the Dodgers down the stretch and their grades:
