I think Maeda was a problem child. He is reported to think the Dodgers messed with him because of the incentives in his contract and refused to go to the pen where he could have been a dominant 1 inning guy.

Getting Graterol is really interesting. Dodgers need a closer of the future. May could be the guy but you lose a starting pitcher of the future. Urias and Gonsolin seem to be ideal set up and inning eaters and the way the Dodgers are, they need a swing pitcher who can spot start and step in with injuries. 

Connor Wong wasn't going to make it in the Dodgers, IMO, because he doesn't frame well, job 1 for a Dodger catcher. Jeter is a loss, but they have other middle guys coming up. If the seeger of old returns, he was boxed out. If he doesn't, Lux is a natural SS. They have lots of talent for 2B. Plus I would not be shocked to see them trade for Lindor. 

Verdugo is another loss but not as big as it seems. He has issues. He was implicated in a sexual assault case. Far worse behavior than any accused of Urias {and Urias was investigated by LAPD, MLB, and his actions were not judged to be criminal, or worthy of more than a 7 game suspension by MLB.} He hid his health problem last season. He is reported to not be doing baseball activities. The Dodger have a whole lot of good people on their team {not talented but how they carry themselves.} Verdugo isn't necessarily one of them.
