The Dodgers are exploring trades involving Kendrick, Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kendrick, who's traditionally played second base, wasn't pleased with his role over the course of the 2016 season. Rather than start at second, the Dodgers primarily started Kendrick in left field and gave him occasional chances to play around the infield. Although the Dodgers are shopping Kendrick around, the 33-year-old's performance at the plate certainly didn't make a case to improve his trade value. Kendrick managed to scrap together a batting average of just .255, which was a vast regression coming off three straight seasons that saw him hit above .290.
