Wednesday afternoon, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reported the Dodgers have interest in free-agent third baseman Josh Donaldson.
Entering his age-34 season in 2020, Donaldson (.259/.379/.521/.900) is coming off of a bounce back season for the Braves in 2019. Finishing at 4.9 WAR and 132 wRC+ in 155 games, Donaldson predictably topped the 1.3 WAR and 117 wRC+ he produced in 52 games while struggling with injuries for the Indians and Blue Jays in 2018.
The Dodgers didn’t struggle for offensive production at third base in 2019 (as I touched on yesterday).
