Contract negotiations between the Los Angeles Dodgers and free agent Teoscar Hernández have stalled because the two parties disagree on the amount of money the outfielder should receive, according to The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal. Hernández wants a three-year deal between $66 million and $72 million.
While money is a point of contention with the outfielder, the Dodgers are searching for other alternatives as a right-handed hitting option, per Rosenthal. The Dodgers are considering infielder Ha-Seong Kim of the San Diego Padres, right fielder Seiya Suzuki of the Chicago Cubs, and center fielder Luis Robert Jr. of the Chicago White Sox.
