First Images of Mookie Betts and David Price in Dodgers Jerseys Emerge
By Karl Rasmussen
The offseason's biggest blockbuster saw Mookie Betts and David Price swap Beantown for Hollywood. After an extended wait for trade completion, the two are settling into their new digs, and were introduced by the Dodgers on Wednesday.
Folks, we now have the first photos of the former Red Sox stars rocking their new Dodger gear, and fans in LA will surely be thrilled. Fans in Boston, however, may want to avert their eyes.
This is going to take some getting used to.
Betts is set to continue rocking his No. 50 jersey for his new club, whereas Price will swap out his No. 10 uniform in favor of the No. 33.
The trade, which was delayed for a few days by the Red Sox, officially went through on Monday. The Dodgers acquired Price, Betts and hard-throwing reliever Brusdar Graterol in exchange for Jeter Downs, Alex Verdugo, Connor Wong and Kenta Maeda in separate trades with Boston and Minnesota.
This is a tandem Dodger fans are eager to add to an already-potent roster, and could have a significant impact on the team's World Series aspirations.
How long will Mookie be in town, though? Well, there's just no way of knowing.
Soak it in for now, LA.
