Gerrit Cole and Stephen Strasburg seem to be the most popular targets for Dodger fans with Cole likely landing the biggest contract this winter. Anthony Rendon could land the second-biggest contract of the off-season and he should be the Dodgers’ primary target this winter. For starters, starting pitchers usually become paid more than they are worth in the last few years of their contracts.
Anthony Rendon is said to be willing to take a shorter contract in return for a higher annual salary. This could align perfectly with the Dodgers who reportedly offered Bryce Harper a four-year contract last winter that would’ve shattered the highest annual salary record for Major League Baseball.
