The Los Angeles Dodgers are refusing to exit the spotlight. Just days after finalizing a massive $69,000,000 contract for All-Star closer Edwin Díaz, President of Baseball Operations Andrew Friedman has confirmed the team is “not done yet.”
In a candid reveal to SportsNet LA, Friedman admitted the Dodgers are currently scouring both the free-agent and trade markets for an “elite position player” who can impact the game on both sides of the ball. This “calculated tease” has sent the baseball world into a frenzy as the 2025 Winter Meetings conclude.
Insiders believe the Dodgers are targeting three specific superstars to finalize their 2026 dynasty:
- Kyle Tucker: The prize of the market. Rumors suggest L.A. is exploring a high-AAV, short-term deal to lure the Astros star to Chavez Ravine.
- Steven Kwan: A “Gold Glove” target who would provide the elite outfield defense and contact hitting the team craves.
- Brendan Donovan: The versatile Cardinals utility man remains a high-priority trade target to bolster roster flexibility.
Friedman noted that because of the team’s “positional flexibility,” they aren’t locked into one spot. This opens the door for a shocking move, such as sliding Tommy Edman to center field to make room for a new infielder or pursuing Bo Bichette to solidify the dirt.
Social media metrics have surged to 12,000,000 impressions as fans track Friedman’s every word. With Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, and Freddie Freeman already in place, the addition of another “top-tier bat” would officially create the most expensive and dangerous lineup in history.
The message to the rest of the MLB is deafening: the Dodgers are shopping for a three-peat, and they have the prospects and the payroll to land whoever they want.
