While the Los Angeles Dodgers figured to have a busy offseason in terms of personnel matters, specifically related to manager Dave Roberts and Clayton Kershaw, they have already seen turnover in the coaching staff and may soon experience the same in the front office.
Chris Woodward was first to depart, earning a promotion as he was hired away by the Texas Rangers as their new manager. Then on Tuesday, Turner Ward accepted a hitting coach position with the Cincinnati Reds.
Sandwiched between the two coaches leaving the Dodgers organization has been rampant speculation of general manager Farhan Zaidi being a focal point for the San Francisco Giants as they look to find a new head in their front office.
