If this offseason has taught us anything, it’s that deals can (and will) fall apart. The Dodgers had deals in place with Hisashi Iwakuma and a trade in place for Aroldis Chapman, but both moves fell apart for different reasons.
For many reasons, Dodger fans grew wary of every deal, not wanting to count on it until it’s 100 percent official. So understandably, when the Dodgers reportedly had an agreement with Kendrick, there was some skepticism.
Welcome back, Howie!
Today the #Dodgers announced the signing of Howie Kendrick to a two-year contract.
