Yoshinobu Yamamoto produced a heroic 2025 postseason that included back-to-back complete games and a Game 7 start on zero days' rest, helping the Dodgers repeat as World Series champions. He totaled 211 innings across 36 appearances (35 starts), all career highs. He took November off from throwing before ramping up for the Dodgers and Samurai Japan and was the first pitcher to face hitters when pitchers and catchers reported. He reported feeling better than a normal offseason and said he spent the offseason with more purpose. He finished third in Cy Young voting and is managing workload concerns entering the season.
