DALLAS — Last year, the Dodgers entered Major League Baseball’s winter meetings as one of the most intriguing clubs in the league, as they awaited an outcome to the Shohei Ohtani sweepstakes.
This year, the team has been somewhat under the radar at the Hilton Anatole in Dallas, having already executed several key pieces of offseason business.
Last week, the team addressed its need in the starting rotation, landing two-time Cy Young winner Blake Snell on a five-year, $182 million contract. On Sunday, it re-signed Blake Treinen in the bullpen and added veteran Michael Conforto for outfield depth — all while another target, Juan Soto, agreed to a record-breaking $765 million deal with the New York Mets.
