The Dodgers agreed Feb. 6 on a deal to bring star pitcher Clayton Kershaw back for 2024. The deal is reportedly for one year, with a player option for 2025. According to Joel Sherman of The New York Post, the deal is for $5 million guaranteed plus up to $7.5 million in bonuses.
It’ll be Kershaw’s 17th season in Los Angeles, and the Dodgers are the only team he has played for in his MLB career. Kershaw underwent shoulder surgery in November and is not expected back until the middle of this season. He was ranked No. 14 on Yahoo Sports’ list of this winter’s top free agents.
Justin Turner has found a new team to play for, and it’ll keep him in the American League East.
The designated hitter agreed Jan. 30 on a 1-year, $13 million deal with the Toronto Blue Jays. The 39-year-old reportedly has the ability to earn an additional $1.5 million in bonuses.

The former Phillies fan favorite is headed to Milwaukee. Hoskins agreed Jan. 23 with the Brewers on a two-year, $34 million contract with an opt-out after the first year.
With Hoskins coming off a missed season due to a torn ACL, the opt-out gives him a chance to prove that he’s back to form in 2024 and reset his value for next winter. The first baseman and DH was No. 22 on Yahoo Sports’ list of this winter’s top 25 free agents.
Seven-time All-Star reliever Aroldis Chapman agreed Jan. 22 to terms on a deal with the Pittsburgh Pirates. The deal is for one year and $10.5 million.

#Dodgers Clayton Kershaw said it was “amazing” to watch what the organization did this winter and wanted to be a part of it.
“The talent is probably the best I’ve ever been a part of. I’m hopeful that I can be a part of it, too.”

The Blue Jays have sincere interest in free agents J.D. Martinez and Justin Turner, whom Bo Bichette mentioned in a recent @FAN590 interview.
Martinez (.880 OPS) and Turner (.766) both produced against RHP last year, which overrides the Jays’ slight preference to add LHH.
