Hernández, who is expected to play right field next season, calls the Dodgers “different” from other teams and says “money wasn’t an issue” in his decision-making.

The Dodgers have continued to operate. The loss of Walker Buehler (and potentially Jack Flaherty) in free agency was offset as the Dodgers signed two-time Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell. They brought back reliever Blake Treinen and extended Tommy Edman to play center field.

The Dodgers sign Korean infielder Hyeseong Kim for three years and $12.5 million and formally recognize Teoscar Hernández's return on the same day.
