Andrew Toles' contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers has lasted for the sixth year in a row, despite the former outfielder's battle with mental illness. Since being diagnosed with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, Toles, who has not played Major League Baseball since 2018, has been on the Dodgers' restricted list since March 2019. Although he is unlikely to play for them again, LA has signed the 31-year-old to a $0 contract to ensure he will continue using their health insurance for his bipolar and schizophrenia treatment.

Andrew Toles hasn't played Major League Baseball since 2018, but the Los Angeles Dodgers recently signed him to a new deal so he can have health care as he continues to battle mental illness. The signing had been announced by the Los Angeles Times last week. It's the fifth year in a row that the Dodgers have decided to renew Toles' deal. In 2020, the 30-year-old Georgia native was discovered homeless near an airport in Key West, Florida. His father revealed that he was suffering from bipolar disorder and schizophrenia the following year.
