"Michael Conforto has arguably been the worst position player to garner everyday playing time in the big leagues this season. Teoscar Hernandez has seen his production both offensively and defensively plummet over the last few months. Andy Pages is easily having the best season of the bunch - though he's been questioned recently by inconsistency and a perceived lack of hustle."
"Hernandez is a curious case. Despite being a major hero during the World Series run in 2024, this current year has been very underwhelming. There were those who were a bit skeptical in Hernandez getting re-signed in the first place. Soon to be 33 years of age, Hernandez has two more years on the books not including a club option in 2028. There's a world where LA could look to offload him this winter to free up space for an upgrade."
The Los Angeles Dodgers' outfield contains multiple underperforming players. Michael Conforto has struggled and is unlikely to be re-signed. Teoscar Hernandez has seen both offensive and defensive production decline significantly despite previous postseason success. Andy Pages is the most productive option but has faced questions about inconsistency and effort. Prospects Zyhir Hope, Josue De Paula, and Mike Sirota remain in the minors as potential future contributors. Hernandez carries two guaranteed years plus a 2028 club option, creating the possibility of a trade to free payroll or roster space. Kyle Tucker is viewed as a top free-agent target who could land on the West Coast.
