"While the wait for those free agency dominoes to fall continues, the Dodgers reportedly added to their infield depth by claiming Ryan Fitzgerald off waivers from the Minnesota Twins, per Alden González of ESPN: Sources: The Dodgers have claimed INF Ryan Fitzgerald from the Twins. Fitzgerald, 31, spent 24 games in the majors last season and slashed .277/.367/.469 in 59 Triple-A games. Can play SS, 3B, 2B. He was DFA'd last week. - Alden González (@Alden_Gonzalez) January 9, 2026"
"Fitzgerald, 31, made his MLB debut with the Twins last season. He appeared in 24 games and hit .196/.302/.457 with four home runs and nine RBI. While with Triple-A St. Paul last year, Fitzgerald batted .277/.367/.469 with 16 doubles, seven home runs and 31 RBI. He has experience playing first base, second base, third base, shortstop and all three outfield positions. The bulk of Fitzgerald's time in the Minors has come as a shortstop."
Tommy Edman projects to spend much of 2026 at second base if his surgically repaired right ankle limits center-field play. The Dodgers are linked to Bo Bichette amid potential Blue Jays roster moves tied to Kyle Tucker.
