The Los Angeles Dodgers are set to enter Spring Training with a loaded outfield depth chart that features the likes of Kiké Hernandez, Joc Pederson, Yasiel Puig, Chris Taylor and Andrew Toles all contending for three positions.
Other possible options include the newly-acquired Matt Kemp — largely dependent on the club’s ability to jettison the veteran’s salary elsewhere — and promising rookie Alex Verdugo, who has remained in the organization despite consistent trade rumors revolving around him.
Verdugo received his long-awaited promotion to the Majors last September and proceeded to slash .174/.240/.304/ with one home run over 25 plate appearances.
