The Los Angeles Dodgers hope they signed the steal of the offseason, reportedly agreeing to a minor league contract with former New York Yankees and New York Mets reliever Stephen Ridings.
Ridings spent last season with the High Point Rockers of the Atlantic League in North Carolina and will start the 2025 season with the Dodgers’ Triple-A club in Oklahoma City.
The 29-year-old went 1-0 with a 3.06 ERA for the Rockers last season. He appeared in nine games, including seven starts and struck out 41 in 32.1 innings pitched.
