"The Los Angeles Dodgers roster for the 2025 National League Championship Series consists of 12 pitchers, 14 position players and Shohei Ohtani in his two-way role. The Dodgers carried 14 position players and 11 pitches in the NL Division Series, but Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said they would add at least one pitcher to their NLCS roster due to the longer seven-game series."
"The Dodgers elected to now include Ben Casparius while removing Dalton Rushing. Casparius closed out the regular season with Triple-A Oklahoma City as the Dodgers wanted him to improve mechanically and against right-handed batters. Meanwhile, Rushing did not appear in a postseason game while active for the Wild Card round and NLDS. Will Klein became eligible for the first time this postseason after he was optioned just before the end of the regular season, but ultimately did not factor into the Dodgers' plans."
The Los Angeles Dodgers finalized a 26-player NLCS roster with 12 pitchers, 14 position players and Shohei Ohtani serving as a two-way player. The roster expanded a pitcher compared with the NLDS to prepare for a potential seven-game series. Ben Casparius was added while Dalton Rushing was removed; Casparius finished the regular season at Triple-A Oklahoma City to work on mechanics and performance against right-handed batters. Justin Wrobelski remained after replacing an injured Tanner Scott in the NLDS; Scott is ineligible for the NLCS roster but could be available for the World Series. Will Klein was eligible but did not factor into roster plans.
