Diamondbacks' Zack Greinke: Dodgers explored Greinke trade

The Dodgers explored a trade for Greinke before Wednesday's deadline for players to become postseason eligible, but talks did not progress, Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports reports.

Analysis:

Rosenthal noted that the Dodgers could renew discussions in the offseason and seem to have a strong interest in bringing Greinke back. This is noteworthy because Greinke posted a 2.30 ERA for the Dodgers between 2013 and 2015, and was second in Cy Young voting last season. Greinke has not been nearly as successful in Arizona, as he currently has a 4.17 ERA, which would be his worst mark since 2010. A return to Los Angeles would likely boost Greinke's fantasy stock in 2017.
