Once an everyday center fielder and top prospect in the Los Angeles Dodgers organization, Joc Pederson has been relegated to playing all three outfield positions as a platoon player over recent seasons.
Despite seeing a change in his role and not making the list of top 10 left fielders as assembled by ESPN’s Buster Olney, Pederson was named among his six “best of the rest” candidates.
Pederson was joined by Eloy Jimenez of the Chicago White Sox, Boston’s Andrew Benintendi, Milwaukee’s Avisail Garcia, Pittsburgh’s Bryan Reynolds and Tampa Bay’s Hunter Renfroe.
