Mandatory Credit: Jayne Kamin-Oncea-Imagn Images\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Los Angeles Dodgers remain in discussions with fan favorite free agent Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez, but for now, nothing has come to fruition. After a phenomenal one-season stint in Los Angeles, there\u2019s a chance Hern\u00e1ndez could be wearing a different uniform in 2025.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-4\"><\/div>\n<p>Hern\u00e1ndez is eyeing a three-year deal worth $22-24 million, according to MLB.com\u2019s Mark Feinsand. There have been conflicting reports about the fate of Hern\u00e1ndez in free agency, but it\u2019s always been speculated that the outfielder was seeking a multi-year deal.<\/p>\n<p>MLB insider Bob Nightengale offered some insight on whether Hern\u00e1ndez will return to the Dodgers in a conversation with Dodgers Nation\u2019s Doug McKain.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI think Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez comes back. He loved playing with the Dodgers, and you saw during the postseason, during the parade, everybody raved about what a great teammate he was. So, I think Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez is back, and then you kind of fill in from there. But, you know, if Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez decides not to come back, they\u2019ll grab someone else. There\u2019s certainly enough outfielders out there. They do have some depth with the returning guys they have.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, other insiders have predicted Hern\u00e1ndez to land with another team. ESPN\u2019s David Schoenfield believes Hern\u00e1ndez will join his former team, the Toronto Blue Jays.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the start of the offseason, there seemed to be an assumption Hernandez would return to the Dodgers after he made such a huge impact both on the field and in the clubhouse, but the two sides are reportedly far apart \u2014 and the Dodgers signed Michael Conforto, another corner outfielder with subpar defensive metrics,\u201d Schoenfield wrote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKnowing how much the Dodgers care about defense, it seems unlikely that they\u2019ll go with both Hernandez and Conforto in the corners. So maybe that pushes Hernandez back to Toronto, where he played for five seasons as a regular, including an All-Star season in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>The Jays clearly need offense and pursued Soto to fill a hole in the outfield, so Hernandez is a reasonable backup plan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The conversations between the Dodgers and Hern\u00e1ndez stalled a few weeks ago, after it was reported the two parties were close on finalizing a deal. Since then, the Blue Jays have emerged as a legitimate contender to sign Hern\u00e1ndez.<\/p>\n<p>Hern\u00e1ndez was open about his desire to return to Los Angeles during the season. But if another team makes him a better offer, he may not return to the Dodgers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Los Angeles Dodgers remain in discussions with fan favorite free agent Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez, but for now, nothing has come to fruition.
