Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports has a few National League West Trade Deadline Rumors to follow (courtesy of Major League sources close to Rosenthal)

The Dodgers are considering trades for Scott Podsednik and other outfielders as they wait for the return of the injured Manny Ramirez and Reed Johnson. Jayson Stark of ESPN said the Dodgers were pursuing Detroit Tigers outfielder Ryan Raburn.

The Giants are also talking to the Royals about Podsednik. They are also weight other options such as Florida Marlins’ Jorge Cantu, Royals’ Jose Guillen and several left-handed and right-handed relievers.

The Dodgers are also active in the bullpen market. They are looking at the three Toronto Blue Jays relievers: right-handers Kevin Gregg and Jason Frasor and left-hander Scott Downs – though Downs is “a longshot”.

The Padres are focusing in on two or three modest candidates, most likely on the offensive side.

The Rockies are in the mix for Cantu, but also could be sellers. Earlier we talked about the Rockies possibly parting with reliever Joe Beimel.
