Roki Sasaki

The beginning of Sasaki's tenure with the Dodgers was rocky, to say the least. The 24-year-old posted a 4.72 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 29:22 K:BB over 34.1 innings covering his first eight starts of the season before landing on the injured list with a right shoulder impingement. Sasaki would not make another start with the big club in 2025, finally returning as a reliever in late September after a mechanical adjustment unlocked his stuff. He then thrived out of the bullpen in a couple late regular-season appearances and in the playoffs. It's likely Sasaki is given another chance to start in 2026, and the upside remains tantalizing. That said, he'll be a major wild card for fantasy purposes from a performance standpoint, and even if he pitches well, the workload could be relatively limited. Read Past Outlooks
