Los Angeles Dodgers fan favorite Kiké Hernandez underwent surgery following the 2025 season, and gave an update on his availability for next season.
The veteran revealed he will miss “a month or two” to start 2026.
The Baltimore Orioles took a closer off the market on Saturday, signing Ryan Helsley to a two-year contract. The Dodgers had interest in Helsley at the trade deadline, but distanced themselves from the closer following a horrendous second half of the season.
An MLB executive listed Tyler Glasnow as a trade candidate this offseason, stating the Dodgers could run with a five-man rotation while giving up Glasnow to address the other needs on the roster.
