The Dodgers just sealed the deal with former All-Star Noah Syndergaard and also are bringing back LA legend, Clayton Kershaw for his 15th season in Dodger blue.
But the team has yet to answer a few questions about who next year’s starting shortstop will be and also whether or not they will resign Justin Turner after refusing to offer him a qualifying offer this year.
But while the Dodgers have been suspected of resetting their luxury tax by not making too many moves, their division rival down South has been very busy this offseason.
Thanks to his recent 11-year, $280 million contract, including a $5 million signing bonus, Xander Bogaerts protects the Padres from the opt-out of Manny Machado after 2023 and the potential loss to free agency of outfielder Juan Soto after 2024.
