Outfielder/first baseman Scott Van Slyke and right-handed relief pitcher Chris Hatcher will be back with the Dodgers in 2017 following seasons that had them as potential non-tender candidates.
#Dodgers have signed OF Scott Van Slyke and RHP Chris Hatcher to 1 yr contracts, avoiding arbitration. Could have been non-tender candidates

The money isn’t known yet (actually, SVS is being paid a paltry $1.325 million), but it’s significant just that they will even be back with the team in 2017 considering the potential roster crunch the Dodgers will have.
