Journeyman infielder Sheldon Neuse has reportedly signed with the Hanshin Tigers of the Nippon Professional League in Japan. Neuse, 27, has been in the MLB since 2019, and spent a portion of the 2021 season with the Dodgers.
The righty slugger was acquired by LA in a 2020 trade that saw the club send left-handed pitcher Adam Kolarek to Oakland following the World Series.
In 2021, Neuse hit .169 (11-65) with three home runs and four runs batted in. He struck out 26 times and received playing time because of the lack of depth the Dodgers struggled with that season.
