The Los Angeles Dodgers are gearing up for the upcoming season by adding pitchers Blake Snell and Roki Sasaki to their rotation, along with Shohei Ohtani who is recovering from elbow and shoulder surgeries. Ohtani is expected to return to pitching in May after rehabbing from his injuries. His previous performance as a pitcher was impressive, with a 2.84 ERA and 11.4 strikeouts per nine innings from 2021-23. Despite his recent surgeries, Ohtani’s rehab progress is going well and he is on track to resume pitching soon. The Dodgers’ rotation depth chart for 2025 includes talented pitchers like Shohei Ohtani, Blake Snell, Tyler Glasnow, and others. However, there are concerns about injuries as several pitchers missed time last season due to arm issues. The team is expected to re-sign Clayton Kershaw and implement a six-man rotation to maintain pitcher health. Gavin Stone will miss the upcoming season due to shoulder surgery.
