\"World<\/p>\n

Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez is inarguably the second best outfielder on the free agent market behind Juan Soto.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The Dodgers basically have Hern\u00e1ndez in the palm of their hand, but they do run the risk of squandering a perfect opportunity if they wait too long to re-sign him.<\/p>\n

Hern\u00e1ndez already has a vast market that includes the Red Sox and Orioles, the former of whom should be willing to up whatever offer they made to him last year, due to his success in the 2024 season. Searching for the way to tempt him away from the Dodgers?<\/p>\n

That\u2019s how you do it.<\/p>\n

Given how fervently and publicly Hern\u00e1ndez has expressed his interest in staying in LA, any other interested team has an uphill battle to fight if they want to tempt him away, but the capital the Red Sox and even the Orioles, now under new management, have shouldn\u2019t be underestimated.<\/p>\n

A new big spender has also reportedly entered the fray for Hern\u00e1ndez, too, one who Dodgers fans would be completely loathe to see him to go. According to Jeff Passan, the Yankees are looking at Hern\u00e1ndez as a potential backup if their efforts to re-sign Juan Soto fall short.<\/p>\n

Dodgers must sign Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez before Yankees join Red Sox, Orioles as suitors<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brandon Gomes said at Winter Meetings that the Dodgers front office would be engaging in talks with Hern\u00e1ndez\u2019s camp, and let\u2019s not forget that a qualifying offer from the Dodgers is still on the table, even though signs point to Hern\u00e1ndez not taking it and working out a new deal instead.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s very possible that the Dodgers are already working things out behind the scenes, but when you\u2019re an anxious fan who\u2019s seeing reports about Hern\u00e1ndez\u2019s expanding market, it\u2019s hard not to wonder what\u2019s taking so long.<\/p>\n

With Mookie Betts returning to the infield, both of the outfield corners are now open, and there is no excuse for the Dodgers not to be aggressive about re-signing Hern\u00e1ndez. The Dodgers are still the heavy favorites to sign him, but again, it\u2019s hard not to worry about encroaching teams.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve already extolled Hern\u00e1ndez\u2019s virtues a lot throughout the season and into the offseason, and all of the awards that have been rolling in since the World Series wrapped up (Silver Slugger, All-MLB second team) speak for him. Tick tock, Dodgers. Hern\u00e1ndez seems like he\u2019ll wait around a good while, but he can\u2019t and won\u2019t wait forever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
