The Los Angeles Dodgers have been one of the most active teams in baseball this month, which started with the signing of Trevor Bauer to a record-setting three-year contract. The club has since reached an agreement with Justin Turner while also trading away Adam Kolarek and Dylan Floro.
The Dodgers additionally avoided arbitration with Walker Buehler on a two-year contract. Buehler was set to proceed with a hearing had he not received a multi-year extension. That left Austin Barnes as the lone remaining arbitration-eligible player without a contract for the 2021 season.
A resolution was finally reached last week when the Dodgers reportedly avoided arbitration with Barnes on a two-year pact worth $4.
