Mookie Betts gave his first comments as a member of the Los Angeles Dodgers after the team officially introduced him and David Price on Wednesday.

The Dodgers acquired Betts and Price from the Boston Red Sox in the offseason's biggest blockbuster to date. Betts is widely considered to be the second-best position player in MLB behind Mike Trout. He had a .524 slugging percentage and .915 OPS to go along with 29 home runs and 80 RBI in 2019.

The 27-year-old has high hopes of his time in Los Angeles, telling reporters he's aiming to win his second World Series title.
