"The Dodgers are reportedly among the three most aggressive teams trying to sign Tucker, along with the Toronto Blue Jays and New York Mets. The belief across the league remains that Tucker lands with the Blue Jays, while the Dodgers and Mets prefer to sign him on a short-term deal with a high average annual value (AAV). As the negotiations go on between Tucker and the clubs, he reportedly met with all three teams, according to Jim Duquette of MLB Network Radio:"
"A League source confirmed to me that the three main teams involved in the Tucker negotiations (Tor, LAD, NYM) have all met with the player, either in person or over Zoom, as part of the recruiting process for a star player. Will be interesting to see if any of the 3 teams... Tucker reportedly visited the Blue Jays' Spring Training facility in Florida last month."
The Los Angeles Dodgers remain one of three teams aggressively pursuing free agent outfielder Kyle Tucker, alongside the Toronto Blue Jays and New York Mets.
