The Los Angeles Dodgers and Teoscar Hernández have been a match made in heaven in the early months of his one-year contract — so much so that the veteran outfielder wants to stay in L.A. long-term.
The conclusion to Teoscar Hernández's first foray into free agency came as a mild surprise. While many believed the veteran outfielder would sign a multi-year contract, he ended up settling for a one-year, $23.5 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers. The salary was lowered by deferrals to $20.4 million.Hernández's .
"I want to stay," Hernández replied. "I don’t want to keep bouncing around the league. I feel good here, comfortable. I think this is a good chance for me to win. That is the most important thing for me. It’s a great group. I would love to stay." Clearly the Dodgers have shown Hernández something he hasn't experienced anywhere else in his career. His chances of winning a World Series are perhaps better in Los Angeles than they would be anywhere else.
