He made the All-Star team in 2018 with the Oakland Athletics, posting a remarkable 0.78 ERA and recording 100 strikeouts in 80.1 innings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_kh9hdvk7y\">However, in 2019, his performance took a sharp dive, finishing the season with a 4.91 ERA. The Dodgers took a chance on him in 2020, and he proved them right, playing a key role in their World Series title.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_i3mim2245\">After that, the Dodgers re-signed him to a two-year deal. Treinen continued to impress in 2021 but was sidelined by a serious shoulder injury, forcing him to miss nearly all of the 2022 season. After another extension, he missed all of 2023 due to the same injury but made a successful return in 2024, posting a 1.93 ERA and contributing to another championship.<\/p>\n<div id=\"inarticle_d_3_6\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_2kvajvnu4\">\u201cI would love for Santa to bring me another bullpen arm who is a high-leverage free agent,\u201d Roberts added, likely referring to veteran free agent reliever Joe Kelly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_rw0fuxs6y\">Kelly, who signed a one-year contract with the Dodgers last December, will also be a free agent this offseason. His future with the Dodgers is uncertain, as his ERA has been over 4.12 since 2021, and injuries have frequently kept him off the mound, factors that could make it less likely for him to return.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_e7012z69i\">The final two items on Roberts\u2019 list are a game-changing outfielder and a postseason utility star.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_o2123v4k7\"><em>\u201cAnd I want to bring in a guy who hit a couple of big homers for us in the postseason\u2026 and is from a Latin American country,\u201d he added with a laugh, referencing both Kik\u00e9 Hern\u00e1ndez and Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_l2cjkikpz\">Teoscar is coming off a career-best season, including a victory in the Home Run Derby, while Kik\u00e9 played a crucial role in the Dodgers\u2019 postseason run, helping them secure another World Series title.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just a week removed from a World Series title and days after a World Series Championship celebration,\u00a0Los Angeles Dodgers\u00a0manager Dave Roberts has already made his offseason wish&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":7576,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7575","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
