8:53pm: Kyle Tucker is in agreement on a deal with the Dodgers, reports ESPN’s Jeff Passan. It’s a short-term contract, reports Jon Heyman of The New York Post.
The two-time defending champions have done it again. Tucker is the latest superstar addition to what was already MLB’s most feared offense. Tucker slots into a lineup that already included Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman, Mookie Betts, Will Smith, Max Muncy, Teoscar Hernández and Tommy Edman. He’ll join Hernández and Andy Pages as the primary outfielders, with Edman also capable of logging center field action when he’s not at second base.
More to come.
