With Pedro Baez and Blake Treinen reaching free agency, the Los Angeles Dodgers have identified the bullpen as an area of focus this offseason.
The club has addressed the unit in recent days with a slew of Minor League signings, reuniting with the likes of Brandon Morrow, Jimmy Nelson and Brock Stewart. L.A. had previously completed a trade for Corey Knebel, sending prospect Leo Crawford to the Milwaukee Brewers.
Knebel is the type of low-risk, high-upside player the Dodgers look to acquire when the opportunity presents itself. He has been limited by injuries the past two seasons, but the club liked what they saw of him down the stretch in 2020.
