In August 2015 the Los Angeles Dodgers added a strong presence to the clubhouse by trading for Chase Utley. He reunited with longtime double-play partner Jimmy Rollins, who left the Philadelphia Phillies via free agency prior to the 2015 season.
However, Utley quickly found himself playing alongside Corey Seager. The Dodgers called up their top prospect in September of that year while Rollins remained sidelined due to injury. Seager supplanted the veteran as the starting shortstop, and began learning under Utley’s tutelage.
In somewhat of a surprise, Los Angeles re-signed Utley last offseason to a one-year deal.
