PHOENIX —
The Dodgers’ new-look roster isn’t set in stone yet.
On Monday, the team agreed to a trade that will send outfielder Manuel Margot to the Minnesota Twins and, as a result, was closing in on a one-year contract with super-utility man Kiké Hernández, according to multiple people with knowledge of the situation not authorized to speak publicly.
The moves make sense for a Dodgers team still trying to improve around the margins.
They will get the $10 million they owe Margot — the veteran outfielder they acquired from Tampa Bay as part of the Tyler Glasnow trade this offseason — off their books.
