Miguel Rojas is returning to No. 72 after wearing No. 11 for the Dodgers, allowing Roki Sasaki to wear No. 11, his idol Yu Darvish's number.
Rojas hinted at his number change with Instagram posts captioned 'It's time' and 'Back to the roots,' signaling a return to his original number.
Sasaki had to navigate various number restrictions; his preferred choices were unavailable, as No. 11 was retired and No. 17 was worn by Ohtani.
The transition of numbers sparked speculation about potential compensation for Rojas, similar to Joe Kelly's previous deal involving a Porsche.
