According to several sources, the Los Angeles Dodgers signed Michael Conforto to bolster their outfield depth.
According to insiders, the Dodgers and Michael Conforto have reached an agreement.
On Sunday night, the Dodgers agreed to a one-year, $17 million deal with the outfielder.
After missing the whole 2022 season due to a shoulder injury, Conforto, 31, signed a two-year, $36 million contract with the San Francisco in 2023 and has been with the team for the last two years. In 130 games in 2024, the former Oregon State Beavers star recorded a batting average of.237, 66 RBI, and 20 home runs. Since he played in 151 games with the New York Mets in 2019, this was the most games he had ever played.
After losing to the New York Mets in their bid to sign coveted free agent Juan Soto, the Dodgers swiftly turned to Conforto. On Sunday, Soto agreed to a historic 15-year, $765 million deal with the Mets.
Conforto will join Tommy Edman, James Outman, Andy Pages, and Chris Taylor as Dodgers outfield possibilities on the 40-man roster. Conforto has played in both left and right field during his career. For the 2025 season, Mookie Betts is anticipated to switch to the infield.
