The Dodgers are interested in Cuban pitching prospect Miguel Alfredo Gonzalez.
According to people familiar with the situation, the Dodgers are one of the clubs interested in the 26-year-old right-hander.
Gonzalez fled Cuba and reached El Salvador earlier this year. He has since taken up residency in Mexico and is working out in Tijuana.
Gonzalez could be declared a free agent by Major League Baseball as early as this week.
