Supporting Shohei Ohtani, The Dodgers still have three players on the market

In a sensational offseason, the Los Angeles Dodgers brought in a slew of A-list athletes. The Dodgers spent more than $1 billiоn to acquire Yoshinobu Yamamoto ($325 million/12 years) and Shohei Ohtani ($700 million/10 years), two Japanese superstars. Along with that, they brought in pitcher Tyler Glasnow and outfielder Teoscar Hernandez.

As the Dodgers put together an unbeatable club, other teams have begun to sense the intensity. Here are three players the Dodgers might still sign to enhance their squad for the 2024 MLB season; LA might not stop signing them.

Three players the Dodgers can still sign this offseason: first, shortstop Tim Anderson

Infielder Gavin Lux is expected to return to the Dodgers lineup in 2024, but the team still has the option to acquire an experienced, dependable backup. No team has shown interest in signing Tim Anderson, who is still a free agent. The Chicago White Sox have relied on this player reliably for the last eight years.

Prior to the 2023 season, Anderson was considered one of the top ten shortstops in the MLB. With an incredible.318/.347/.474 line in 374 games over the last four seasons, he was named to two All-Star teams, won a Silver Slugger, and finished eighth in the American League MVP vote. The Dodgers could get a good deal by signing him.

Pitcher Jordan Montgomery, who is currently unsigned, will be a free agent again in 2019. Despite being widely expected to re-sign their star player this offseason, the Texas Rangers have yet to do so.

With his 31 years of experience and recent victory in the Fall Classic, the big southpaw Montgomery will be an asset to Los Angeles’ starting rotation.

#3, second baseman Christian Arroyo

Following his cutting incident in August, he was designated for assignment by the Red Sox.369 total points in 66 games. His right ankle tendonitis kept him out of commission for much of September.

In the Red Sox’s game against the Braves, Christian Arroyo delivers a grand slam.

Christian Arroyo will be free to join with any team he wants this offseason. He is still young (28 years old) and had a successful campaign in 2022, so it doesn’t matter if his 2023 effort failed. He is defensively versatile because he can play corner outfield, all four infield spots, and first base. Therefore, he ought to pique people’s interest in free will.
