Free agent centerfielder A.J. Pollock signed a 4-year/$55M deal yesterday with the Los Angeles Dodgers. The contract also contains opt-out clauses, escalators, and incentives, but the bottomline is, the No. 1 centerfielder on the free agent market is off to LA. Did the Cincinnati Reds make a mistake by not signing Pollock? I don’t think so.
The Cincinnati Reds were said to be enamored with two big name free agents when the offseason began. One of those names was Dallas Keuchel, who’ still yet to find a landing spot, likely due to the 5-year contract he’s seeking.
