Reports: Dodgers to sign free agent OF Pollock

The Los Angeles Dodgers have reportedly reached an agreement with free agent outfielder A.J. Pollock. The deal is pending the results of a physical, The Athletic and ESPN both reported Thursday. USA Today reported the deal is for four years and worth around $50 million and loaded with incentives, escalators and opt-outs.

Pollock, 31, batted .257 with 21 homers, 65 RBIs and 13 stolen bases in 113 games last season with the Arizona Diamondbacks. He missed nearly two months with a broken left thumb. He was a National League All-Star and Gold Glove winner in 2015 when he hit 20 homers and set career highs in batting average (.315), RBIs (76), runs scored (111), doubles (39) and steals (39).

Pollock, Arizona's first-round draft pick in 2009, turned down the Diamondbacks' $17.9 million qualifying offer in November and opted to enter free agency. Pollock's right-handed bat and defensive skills in center field would help the Dodgers replace departed outfielders Yasiel Puig and Matt Kemp, who were traded to the Cincinnati Reds last month.
