Dear Dodger fans, here’s what you’re getting in Mookie Betts

Well, Dodgers fans, there’s not much those of us here in Boston can tell you about a certain veteran lefthanded pitcher sent your way that you probably don’t already know. David Price’s user’s guide is well-worn.

He is an accomplished, enigmatic 34-year-old pitcher with a growing injury history and a supposed “special elbow.’’ His teammates seem to like him, but clouds followed him everywhere here, and he often invited them.

You’ve already seen him at his best, when he should have been the Most Valuable Player of the 2018 World Series against you. That’s not the happiest we ever saw him, though.
