The Los Angeles Dodgers tendered contracts to Luis Avilan, Josh Fields, Yasmani Grandal, Vidal Nuno, Darin Ruf and Alex Wood prior to Friday’s deadline to do so for arbitration-eligible players.
Chris Hatcher and Scott Van Slyke were also eligible for salary arbitration this offseason, but both were re-signed to one-year contracts on Thursday. Charlie Culberson, who wasn’t yet up for arbitration, also previously agreed to terms with the Dodgers.
Coming off an inconsistent second half of 2015 with the Dodgers, Avilan struggled mightily in Spring Training and began the season with Triple-A Oklahoma City.
