The latest and greatest Dodgers news from Thursday all in one place!

The Dodgers had a nice off day for travel on Thursday as the team flew into Texas ahead of a three game series against the Rangers at the home of LA's World Series triumph. Despite the day off, the headlines and rumors kept on coming in as we near the trade deadline.

Current rookies on the roster were the subject of trade talks in different ways with Emmet Sheehan finding himself listed by MLB.com as one of the most likely Dodgers prospects to be traded this summer. Mookie Betts also spoke up about his hope to stay on the infield for the rest of his career and Julio Urias's struggles may be costing him millions in free agency.

Dbacks & Giants both lose. Productive off day for the Dodgers who are now 2 games up on both.

Here's a good look from the open face side of Miguel Vargas swinging the bat tonight. Vargas hit an HR last night and is looking to get back to the type of hitter he has always been. It would be a mistake to bet against him! #dodgers pic.twitter.com/U6rINKPXJ5
