The minute word leaked that the designated hitter was coming to the National League this season, fans and front offices alike began pinpointing the perfect candidates.Kyle Schwarber ... Ryan Braun ... Jay Bruce. And several others.Whether it be an aging slugger returning from injury or a younger hitter who’s not so good with the glove, nearly every NL team has a player who fits the profile: dangerous stick, suspect defense. A natural choice to bat for the pitcher and not play the field. Suddenly there’s an ideal spot in the starting lineup available to those guys, now that the DH has spread beyond the American League under new rules adopted for a postponed season shortened to 60 games because of the coronavirus.It all starts without fans on hand Thursday night in Washington, where the World Series champion Nationals host the New York Yankees. Probably with Eric Thames or Howie Kendrick becoming the first designated hitter for an NL squad playing a regular-season game in its home ballpark.“I... [More]

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Blake Treinen recently moved to the Los Angeles area, just minutes from Dodger Stadium.He’s one of the jewels the Dodgers signed in their banner free agent offseason, a left-handed reliever with a nasty sinkerball who is part of a stacked bullpen along with Kenley Jansen. His wife and children joined him here last week, so his comfort level both in the big city and with his teammates is growing. “I’ve been blessed to be on a couple of organizations that have had some deep 40-man rosters,” Treinen said. “This is easily the deepest 1 through 40 I’ve ever seen.”The Dodgers are a favorite to win the World Series in the 60-game season shortened by the COVID-19 pandemic and played their first exhibition game on Sunday against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Dodger Stadium. Treinen said the biggest concern for him in playing during the COVID-19 pandemic was asthma but it didn’t deter him. He’s happy to be with the Dodgers, likes the environments, the laughs and jokes. Oh, and the... [More]

PHOENIX (AP) — Left fielder David Peralta dodged salary arbitration by agreeing to a $22 million, three-year contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday, a person familiar with the deal told The Associated Press.The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the agreement hadn't been announced.The 32-year-old has been a regular in the Diamondbacks outfield over the past few seasons. He played in 99 games last year, batting .275 with 12 homers despite battling a shoulder injury that bothered him for much of the year and eventually required season-ending surgery.He won a Gold Glove Award in 2019 and hit a career-high 30 homers in 2018.The team also announced Friday that pitchers Robbie Ray, Andrew Chafin and Matt Andriese, along with infielder Jake Lamb, ducked arbitration by agreeing to one-year deals.Ray, who was an All-Star in 2017, has been one of Arizona's top pitchers over the past four seasons.
