The Los Angeles Dodgers have been making headlines lately, and the latest news involves star outfielder Mookie Betts. Betts recently took to social media to urge Major League Baseball teams to sign free agent pitcher Trevor Bauer.
Bauer, who was the National League Cy Young Award winner in 2020, is currently a free agent and has yet to sign with a team. Betts took to Twitter to express his support for Bauer, saying that he is an “awesome guy” and that teams should sign him.
Betts’ comments come at a time when the MLB is facing a difficult free agency period. With teams facing financial constraints due to the pandemic, many players have been left without contracts. Bauer is one of the most sought after free agents in the league, and Betts’ comments could help sway teams to sign him.
Bauer has been vocal about his desire to sign with a team that will give him the opportunity to win a championship. He has also said that he would be willing to take a pay cut in order to join a team that can provide him with that opportunity.
Betts’ comments are sure to be welcomed by Bauer, who is looking for a team to call home. It’s clear that Betts believes in Bauer’s ability to help a team win, and his endorsement could be the tipping point for teams looking to sign him.
The Dodgers are already one of the favorites to win the World Series this year, and the addition of Bauer could make them even more formidable. With Betts’ endorsement, it looks like Bauer could be on his way to Los Angeles soon.
