Teoscar Hernández Nearing Reunion with Dodgers After Stellar Season

Teoscar Hernández has made it clear that he wants to return to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Last month, he expressed his determination to rejoin the reigning World Series champions, stating, "I am going to do everything in my power" to make it happen. It appears that his wish is about to come true.

Dodgers reporter David Vassegh revealed on AM 570 radio in Los Angeles that the Dodgers and Hernández are "trying to nail the final details of a contract. So, things are looking good for Teoscar Hernández and the Dodgers to be back together."

Hernández signed a one-year deal with the Dodgers last offseason and had an exceptional year, recording an .840 OPS and hitting a career-high 33 home runs. His performance earned him his second All-Star selection and his third Silver Slugger Award. Re-signing the 32-year-old outfielder would address one of the Dodgers' corner-outfield needs. There's still a possibility that the other spot could be filled by Juan Soto.

​With Hernández's impressive contributions last season, bringing him back would solidify the Dodgers' lineup as they aim to defend their World Series title. The finalization of his contract will be a key move for the team's offseason plans.
