"The Dodgers' rotation, as of early March, will feature Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Tyler Glasnow, Roki Sasaki, and Shohei Ohtani, assuming everyone stays healthy. Yamamoto and Ohtani are the bigger question marks since they will be playing in intense baseball games, and their competitive nature opens the door to a big one."
"Snell will not be ready for Opening Day, according to Roberts, and Gavin Stone has stopped throwing the ball, ruling him out for the first part of the season. This leaves at least one spot open if they go with a five-man rotation, but the more likely outcome is a six-man rotation, which would leave two slots open."
"The righty was hyper-reliable in the 2025 regular season after coming back from injury. He pitched 15 games and a total of 73.1 innings with a 2.82 ERA. He had 89 strikeouts and 22 walks, a good ratio, and a well-developed arsenal, giving him options."
The Dodgers' Opening Day rotation will likely include Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Tyler Glasnow, Roki Sasaki, and Shohei Ohtani, pending health. However, Blake Snell remains unavailable and Gavin Stone has stopped throwing, creating roster gaps. The team is considering a six-man rotation to fill two open spots. Three candidates—Justin Wrobleski, River Ryan, and Emmet Sheehan—are competing for these positions. Sheehan posted a 2.82 ERA during the regular season but struggled in postseason play and had a rough spring training start. Wrobleski rebounded from a difficult regular season with an impressive postseason performance.
