Dodgers at MLB winter meetings: Competition for Teoscar Hernández heating up

LA Times  

Dodgers outfielder Teoscar Hernández runs the bases after hitting a three-run home run against the Baltimore Orioles in August. That means, as other Soto finalists refocus on Hernández this week, the Dodgers could face renewed competition for the two-time All-Star and three-time Silver Slugger, potentially from fellow big-market clubs such as the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees. Those players don’t come around very often.” “But,” Roberts added, “obviously Teo has put himself in a very good position as a free agent and had a very productive year. After that, however, the Dodgers outfield depth includes only younger names such as Andy Pages, James Outman and maybe even top prospect Dalton Rushing, as well as slumping veteran Chris Taylor. “He has earned this ability with a great year to go out and explore free agency,” Gomes said, after reiterating his appreciation for Hernández’s contributions last year.
