All winter long, Red Sox Nation has kept their ear to the ground listening for whispers of a possible Mookie Betts trade. The superstar has only a single season left on his current deal and has made it known he wants to test free agency. We’ve also heard multiple trade rumors about other key members Boston’s lineup, but Betts firmly has the attention of one big market team.
Jon Morosi of the MLB Network reported yesterday afternoon that the Dodgers have been in touch with Chaim Bloom about acquiring the right-fielder. This is the first time this offseason where it actually feels like a team could make a power move to lure Betts away.
