Dodgers Spring Training: Mookie Betts, Justin Turner Created ‘Kangaroo Court Fine System’ For Mistakes Made During Workouts & Cactus League Games

The Los Angeles Dodgers made one of the biggest splashes during the offseason by acquiring 2018 American League MVP and four-time All-Star Mookie Betts from the Boston Red Sox.

The additions of Betts and David Price helped L.A. accomplish its biggest goal of the winter: adding elite talent to a roster already filled with such players and one coming off a franchise-record 106 wins but still in search of a World Series.

Betts checks off many boxes for L.A., giving the club another right-handed bat and a steady presence at the leadoff spot. He is also one of the league’s best defenders and will now share the same outfield with fellow Gold Glove winner Cody Bellinger.
