Coming off a deflating elimination at the hands of the Washington Nationals in the 2019 National League Division Series, the Los Angeles Dodgers set their sights on adding an elite-caliber player to their roster.
After casting a wide net, the club eventually struck a trade to acquire Mookie Betts from the Boston Red Sox. Betts proved to be the final piece of the puzzle, helping the Dodgers end their World Series drought.
He excelled at the plate and in the field en route to Silver Slugger honors, another Gold Glove Award and a second-place finish in National League MVP voting.
