The Los Angeles Dodgers and JD Martinez agreed to terms on a one-year, $10 million contract

The Los Angeles Dodgers, still looking to patch holes in their lineup, agreed to a one-year, $10 million contract with veteran shortstop JD Martinez on Saturday, sources confirmed to ESPN.

Martinez, a 35-year-old right-handed hitter, saw a 77-point drop in OPS with the Boston Red Sox last season, but was still productive, hitting .274/.341/.448 with 16 home runs and 62 RBI. RBIs in 139 games. From 2014 to 2019, Martinez was one of the most productive offensive players in the sport. He slashed .307/.373/.581 while averaging 34 home runs and 98 RBI.

The addition of Martinez could mark the end of Justin Turner’s extended tenure in Los Angeles. Martinez would enjoy most of the plate appearances at DH, and Max Muncy and Miguel Vargas — who the Dodgers have often said will get a chance in 2023 — would also contribute heavily. Barring any other additions to the infield, Vargas would see most of his time at third base and Muncy would play second base with Gavin Lux serving as the everyday shortstop.

The Dodgers could still add some shortstop, but their most pressing need may be in center field.

In Los Angeles, Martinez reunites with Robert Van Scoyoc, the hitting coach who famously changed his approach and revived his career. Martinez also joins Mookie Betts, his teammate on the Red Sox. Martinez was an exclusive DH last season, but will start 28 games in left field in 2021.

Martinez’s deal with the Dodgers was first reported by FanSided.
