Why can't they just move on?

Yaz is okay if he can stay healthy but Slater is way too strikeout prone. Even Yaz isn't going to put butts i the seats. They need to sign a couple of fairly big names. I'm not in favor of Ohtani because it ties up too much money in one player. They could get 2 or 3 good players that would help the team more.
Slater is a great pinch hitter who can play any OF position. 4 mil is pretty cheap for someone who fills a needed role.
He's really streaky.He had along period last year when he couldn't even put the ball in play. He has good power but we seldom see it. He'll hit a half dozen HRs that travel 430 ft but then a long period of nothing. He's a decent defensive player but it seems like he gets hurt every year. They need to move on. They keep signing the same guys every year hoping they'll turn it around.
Go Dodgers go.
