Kyle Tucker Signs $240M Dodgers Deal, Honoring Mentor

Four-time All-Star Kyle Tucker signed a blockbuster $240 million deal with the Dodgers this offseason. His unique, Ted Williams-esque swing, developed in childhood games, has propelled him to stardom. Drafted 5th overall in 2015, Tucker became an everyday Astros player in 2020, hitting a career-best .294 with 30 HR in 2021, and earning four consecutive All-Star selections since 2022. He's one of only four MLB players with 4.5+ WAR every year since 2021. Tucker will wear former mentor Michael Brantley's No. 23 with the Dodgers.
