"The Dodgers have 40 players under team control for the 2026 season and seven who are currently free agents. The Dodgers recently added prospects Robinson Ortiz and Ryan Ward to their 40-man roster in order to protect them from the upcoming MLB Rule 5 Draft. To make room for those additions, the Dodgers outrighted Justin Dean and Michael Grove to Triple-A Oklahoma City while designating Tony Gonsolin for assignment."
"Dean was claimed off waivers by the San Francisco Giants and Grove elected to become a Minor League free agent. Meanwhile, L.A. exercised club options on both Max Muncy and Alex Vesia for the 2026 season. The Dodgers don't have many needs this offseason but figure to be in the market for an outfielder. They could pursue Kyle Tucker, the top free agent, or complete a trade for the likes of Cleveland Guardians' Steven Kwan."
