• The Dodgers extended qualifying offers to Zack Greinke, Howie Kendrick, and Brett Anderson. However, all three of them are likely to test the market instead. Jimmy Rollins did not receive a qualifying offer, and he’s immediately a free agent.
• Other the other hand, the team declined team options for Chase Utley, Joel Peralta, and Bronson Arroyo.
• The team also interviewed Dave Martinez for the managerial job. He does have a connection with Joe Maddon, who of course, Andrew Freidman loves.
