MLB News: Why haven’t the Dodgers moved with signings in free agency?

the market of free agency has picked up speed in the last couple of weeks and teams like New York Yankees and San Diego Padres among others have made great firms. However, if there is one who has fallen behind in the hires are the Los Angeles Dodgers. But,why the Dodgers have not moved in negotiations in the off season prior to the 2023 Season of MLB?

The Los Angeles Dodgers have been characterized as one of the most aggressive organizations in terms of acquiring star players. However, this 2022 they have been ‘slow’ in the winter market.

The reasons why the Dodgers have not made large signings this offseason could lie in the fact that they are seeing how their competition spends to try to acquire players at a lower price in the future.

Another point would be the luxury tax rate of the teams, since the Los Angeles payroll is very high with players like Trea Turner and Clayton Kershaw. However, this could decrease if they decide to get out of their contract with Trevor Bauer.

The Los Angeles Dodgers do not stop being in the first places of the standing of the regular role of MLB. However, their fans expect them to make pertinent hires that will lead them to a new World Series.

Bachelor of Communication Sciences and Techniques from the Inter-American University for Development (UNID), I am a specialist in sports journalism, writing and editing texts, I have three years of experience covering sports, especially baseball in the Mexican Baseball League (LMB). ), Mexican Pacific League (LMP) and MLB. I was an intern at the LMB Leones de Yucatán Baseball Club, with whom I attended the 2019 Serie del Rey. I have done work for social networks such as coverage of the 2019-2020 edition of the LMP Final for ‘Con Las Bases Llenas’. I am constantly updated on social networks, SEO, Google positioning, writing, digital journalism, as well as the place of women in the sports industry. Originally from Mérida, Yucatán, my first approach to baseball was at a Leones de Yucatán game, in the ‘Kukulcán Álamo’ Park, in 2015; and that changed my life completely. The ‘Melenudos’ are the team I love and the greatest passion I have in this sport. Although I dedicate myself to baseball most of the time, my sport, at the beginning, was (and still is) soccer. Real Madrid and Bayern Munich won my heart and fans from ‘minute one’ and I am fortunate to have already seen them play live. Clearly, I am a fan of Cristiano Ronaldo and Manuel Neuer.
