True Blue L.A.” How Dodgers Became Dodgers: Where Pedro Astacio Becomes Blake DeWitt

This is where we get to the fun part of this exercise, as reminded by Rocknjosie in her excellent Fan Post last month.  There are seven Dodgers left that were acquired as the result, directly or indirectly, of previous transactions.  These are listed in chronological order based on the earliest transaction.
