"Díaz has been one of MLB's best closers for the past several years, and posted incredible numbers in 2025 - even by his standards.

A high leverage reliever topped the Dodgers' list of needs this offseason, and they've solved their problem for the time being with one of the game's best closers."

Dodgers utility man and fan favorite Kiké Hernandez took to X (formerly Twitter) to comment on the Dodgers' All-Star signing. "This is how the Winter Meetings should be every year!!!""
