Hunter Dozier's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

The Los Angeles Angels have signed third baseman/outfielder Hunter Dozier to a minor-league deal. The veteran was designated for assignment and subsequently released by the Royals in May after struggling to a .183 average with two homers and two steals across 29 games to begin the 2023 season. Those 29 contests were his lone game action of the 2023 campaign at any level. It's been a struggle for the 32-year-old since he signed a four-year, $25 million extension prior to the 2021 season as his bat has fallen at least 11% below the league average in each of the past three seasons while strikeouts have long plagued the righty-swinging third baseman. The Angels have Anthony Rendon at third base but the former star has been riddled by injuries since joining the Halos prior to the 2020 season.
