The Los Angeles Dodgers made a trade that shocked the baseball world this past offseason, as they sent Adrian Gonzalez, Brandon McCarthy, Scott Kazmir and Charlie Culberson to the Atlanta Braves in exchange for a familiar face in Matt Kemp.
Kemp’s second stint with the Dodgers was not expected to be a long one though, as the organization made it clear that the would attempt to trade him. They were unsuccessful in doing that, so Kemp reported to Camelback Ranch for Spring Training still a member of the Dodgers.
The spring has since come and gone, and Kemp is now likely to be the team’s starting left fielder on Opening Day.
