"Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Shohei Ohtani, Tyler Glasnow, Roki Sasaki and Freddie Freeman were among the Los Angeles Dodgers players included in MLB Network's ranking of the top 20 postseason performers of 2025. Yamamoto took the No. 1 spot, with Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Ohtani, Trey Yesavage, Ernie Clement, Addison Barger, George Springer, Aaron Judge, Jorge Polanco and Glasnow rounding out the top 10."
"No. 3: Shohei Ohtani. Ohtani hit .265/.405/.691 with three doubles, one triple, eight home runs and 14 RBI in 84 plate appearances across 17 postseason games. As a pitcher, he went 2-1 with a 4.43 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 12.4 strikeouts per nine in 20.1 innings over four starts. No. 10: Tyler Glasnow. Glasnow posted a 1.69 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 10.5 strikeouts per nine in 21.1 innings pitched across six playoff appearances (three starts)."
"Unsurprisingly, half of the list features Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays players. Both teams had incredible playoff runs and met in the World Series, which went to seven games. Though, one notable snub was Will Smith despite setting a World Series record for most innings caught and his decisive home run in Game 7. The Dodgers won back-to-back elimination contests on the road to become baseball's first repeat champion in 25 years."
MLB Network ranked the top 20 postseason performers of 2025, led by Yoshinobu Yamamoto at No. 1. Yamamoto went 5-1 with a 1.45 ERA and 0.78 WHIP in six playoff appearances and became the first pitcher in World Series history to record three road wins, including Games 6 and 7, en route to MVP honors. Shohei Ohtani produced significant two-way value with eight homers and 14 RBI while also going 2-1 on the mound. Tyler Glasnow delivered a 1.69 ERA across 21.1 innings. Roki Sasaki stabilized the Dodgers bullpen with a 0.84 ERA and three saves. Half the list featured Dodgers and Blue Jays players, and the Dodgers repeated as champions after winning consecutive elimination games on the road.
