Adrian Gonzalez has been a model of consistency at first base for the Dodgers since they traded for him in August 2012. He’s appeared in at least 156 games all the while assuming a leadership role over the past four seasons.

Despite battling a pinched nerve in his back that affected the left side of his body, Gonzalez posted an .830 on-base plus slugging percentage last season, which was his highest mark since 2011.

Overall, Gonzalez hit .275/.350/.480 with 28 home runs, 90 RBIs, a .354 wOBA and 129 wRC+ last season. He led the Dodgers in batting average, on-base percentage, home runs, RBIs, total hits (157) and doubles (33).

The successful season earned Gonzalez an two-point increase in overall rating from last year as he checks in as the seventh-best first baseman:
