Dodgers GM Ned Colletti said the pitching staff needs significant improvement.
"We can't go to the bullpen every day as early and as often as we do," Colletti said.
Colletti said he had talked this season with the San Diego Padres about Jake Peavy.
"If we could make a move, we'd do it, no matter the lead, no matter the deficit," Colletti said. "The goal is to improve the club."

The Padres defeated the Cubs 7-2 on Sunday to complete their first-ever 9-0 homestand in franchise history.
San Diego's nine-game winning streak is the longest in the National League this season and the longest active run in the majors.
They swept the Reds, Giants and Cubs.
"This is maybe the most fun experience I've had here in San Diego as far as the team winning, especially given the external distractions that have gone on this past week," pitcher Chris Young said.
The streak improved the Padres to 22-22 on the season, 7 1/2 games behind the Dodgers in the NL West.
