Outfield version of Freddie Freeman - Dodgers analyst gives huge compliment to LA's $66,000,000 acquisition (Source - IMAGN)
Los Angeles Dodgers signed Teoscar Hernandez to a three-year, $66 million contract after weeks of speculation about his future as a free agent.
The 32-year-old outfielder played a starring role last season as they won the World Series. Discussing Hernandez's importance in the LA clubhouse MLB Network on Saturday, Dodgers analyst David Vassegh paid him a huge compliment:
"I am a firm believer that Teoscar Hernandez and the Dodgers are better together than apart.
"And I know we look at the 33 home runs and the 99 RBIs but look at that games played. He was the outfield version of Freddie Freeman for the Dodgers. 154 games, you don't see that in this day and age of load management and guys kind of sitting out for different reasons. So not only was he a team player and a mentor, but also a guy that produced and played every day."
