Teoscar Hernández Joins Dodgers on One-Year Deal

The move is part of the Dodgers' aggressive spending this winter, with Hernández set to play an everyday role in the team.

Teoscar Hernández has signed a one-year, $23.5 million deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers, a move that surprised many who expected him to secure a multiyear contract.
Hernández's signing comes as part of the Dodgers' aggressive spending this winter, which has totaled nearly $1.2 billion in new deals.
The Dodgers' general manager, Brandon Gomes, has confirmed that Hernández will be an 'everyday guy', playing either of the corner outfield positions.
Hernández, a two-time Silver Slugger award winner, hopes the move to the Dodgers will boost his career after a disappointing season with the Seattle Mariners.
The Dodgers' spending has pushed their competitive balance tax figure above $300 million, clear of the highest luxury tax threshold.
