"The Los Angeles Dodgers are chasing a three-peat in 2026, and while they've won back-to-back World Series titles, the front office's effort to improve each year has been a huge factor in the team's success. The Dodgers have some areas to improve upon before next season, including in the outfield. Last winter, the Dodgers signed Michael Conforto to a one-year, $17 million deal."
"While the Dodgers could re-sign the outfielder, he had a career-worst season in LA and did not make the postseason roster because of his lack of production. That leaves the defending champions looking for a new defensive alignment in the outfield, especially with Teoscar Hernandez's struggles in right field throughout 2025. The premier free agent outfielder on the market this offseason is Chicago Cubs star Kyle Tucker; however, the Dodgers likely won't be the highest bidder in the sweepstakes for the 28-year-old."
"I think Cody had a great, great experience here. Rookie of the Year. MVP. And he was Hollywood ringing while he was here so I think that players who have those kinds of experiences over the years are always very welcoming of anywhere like that,"
The Los Angeles Dodgers are aiming for a 2026 three-peat after winning back-to-back World Series titles, with front office upgrades fueling success. The outfield remains a priority after signing Michael Conforto to a one-year, $17 million deal; Conforto endured a career-worst season in LA and missed the postseason roster due to poor production. Teoscar Hernandez struggled in right field during 2025. Chicago Cubs' Kyle Tucker is the top free agent but may command higher bids. Cody Bellinger represents a short-term, familiar option; he earned All-Star selections, won the 2019 NL MVP with 8.7 bWAR, and reportedly would welcome a Dodgers return.
