Olivera signed a six-year 62.5 million dollar deal with the Dodgers this offseason. There has been a long process to get to this point.
He first had to get a proper visa to come to the country. Then Olivera has been dealing with an elbow sprain that caused many suitors to throw up the red flags.
The Dodgers have big plans with the Cuban star. Pairing him with Corey Seager could be a deadly combination for years to come in the infield.

“begin his contract with the Dodgers” means AAA or what?

Yeah he’s going to be on the fast track. Single-A for a few weeks and then Triple-A

After I saw these photos, I thought about moving to London. But I live in New York, which has the best nooks and crannies in the world.

You can’t toss a 1-hitter if you don’t pitch a complete game. Instead it should read more like the second sentence in that “Bolsinger allowed only 1-hit over 8 innings of work and Kenley Jansen pitched a perfect 9th inning to complete the 1-hitter for the Dodgers.”
