They included pitchers Walker Buehler, Jack Flaherty, Joe Kelly and Blake Treinen, outfielder Teoscar Hernández and utility player Kiké Hernández.[1] Pitcher Daniel Hudson and outfielder Kevin Kiermaier also announced their retirements after the World Series.[2] On November 4, pitcher Clayton Kershaw declined the player option on his contract, making him a free agent.[3] On November 14, the Dodgers outrighted pitcher Connor Brogdon to the minors and removed him from the 40-man roster.[4] On November 22, the Dodgers non-tendered pitchers Brent Honeywell Jr. and Zach Logue, making them free agents.[5]
