There’s a reason why Dodgers fans loved Joc Pederson so much, and continue to do so to this day. Joc was drafted by Los Angeles in the 11th round of the 2010 draft out of Palo Alto High School. He came up through the system and made an immediate impact when he debuted in 2014.
This past offseason, Joc took a deal to go play for the Chicago Cubs. He had a better opportunity to play every day and the Dodgers didn’t have the need to fit him into the budget. But even though he moved on to a new team, he didn’t forget his fans out in Los Angeles.
