The Nationals and reliever Brad Hand officially agreed to a one-year deal this week, ending the Dodgers’ reported pursuit of the left-hander this winter. If the club is still aiming to add a lefty to the bullpen mix before the season, there’s one former All-Star LA might want to kick the tires on.
The Dodgers and Andrew Friedman love to buy-low on veteran relievers. Could free agent lefty Sean Doolittle be next?
The 34-year-old Doolittle is coming off his worst season in the majors (5.87 ERA), but could pitching coach Mark Prior and the Dodgers return him to his 2018 All-Star form?
