Minor leagues

Pages signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers for $300,000 in 2018 after defecting from Cuba, where he was a star in the 15-and-under league in 2015, hitting .364/.484/.581 with 25 walks and just three strikeouts in 161 plate appearances.[1] He appeared in 10 games for the Arizona League Dodgers and 42 for the Dominican Summer League Dodgers that year, hitting .229.[2] The following season, with the rookie level Ogden Raptors, he led the league in extra base hits with 43 and ranked second in homers (19), RBI (55), total bases (153) and slugging (.651) as an 18-year-old.[3] He did not play a minor league game in 2020 since the season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He was assigned to the Great Lakes Loons for 2021.[4] He played in 120 games for the Loons, hitting .265 with 31 home runs and 88 RBI.[2] He was selected as a post-season High-A Central all-star, and he was also named Most Valuable Player and Top MLB Prospect of the league.[5] In 2022, he played for the Tulsa Drillers of the Double-A Texas League, hitting .236 with 26 home runs and 80 RBI.[2]

On November 15, 2022, the Dodgers added Pages to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[6] Pages returned to Tulsa to begin the 2023 season[7] where he hit .284 in 33 games.[2] He was promoted to the Triple-A Oklahoma City Dodgers on May 16.[8] Pages appeared in only one game in Triple-A, striking out twice in three at-bats[2] before tearing the labrum in his shoulder and missing the rest of the season.[9]

2024

[edit]

After spring training, Pages returned to Oklahoma City to begin the 2024 season[10] and was promoted to the major leagues for the first time on April 16.[11] He started in center field that day against the Washington Nationals and singled in his first MLB at-bat off Patrick Corbin.[12] Pages hit his first MLB home run off Grant Hartwig of the New York Mets on April 21.[13] On May 3, he had four hits, including his first MLB walk-off in a game against the Atlanta Braves.[14] In 116 games, Pages batted .248 with 13 home runs and 46 RBI.[15] He was hitless in two at-bats in the 2024 NLDS.[15]

In Game 5 of the 2024 National League Championship Series, Pages hit two home runs, becoming the first Dodgers rookie to homer twice in a single playoff game.[16] He had a total of four hits, in 17 at-bats in the series.[15] He was on the active roster for the 2024 World Series but did not appear in the series, which the Dodgers won in five games.[15]
