After the Los Angeles Dodgers traded James Outman to the Minnesota Twins on Thursday, the center fielder shared a parting message with the franchise on Instagram.
“To say the last seven years were fun would be a huge understatement. The people I’ve met along the way have helped me grow into the player — and man — that my 12-year-old self would be proud of. It was a dream come true to debut with the team that drafted me, and I’ll forever be grateful to the Dodgers for the opportunity they gave me. I was truly proud to wear Dodger Blue every night,” Outman wrote.
