With the MLB Winter Meetings officially underway, Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts spoke to reporters on Monday, providing clarity around several of the rumors that have surrounded the team throughout the offseason so far.
One major storyline has been the uncertain future of 33-year-old right fielder Teoscar Hernandez. Reports surfaced that the Dodgers would be ‘shopping’ Hernandez at the deadline, perhaps seeking to create space to acquire a major free agent.
