The Los Angeles Dodgers have traded James Outman to the Minnesota Twins in exchange for relief pitcher Brock Stewart.
Outman burst onto the MLB scene with six hits in four games during the 2022 season, and continued his production in 2023 with a .248 batting average and an OPS+ of 114, 14 percent higher than league average.
LA gets a feared reliever to add to a bullpen in need, but Outman has been in the Dodgers’ system since 2018. The former seventh-round pick has come so far in a Dodgers uniform and will certainly be missed by fans.
