Roki Sasaki (P - LAD)
5/17/26 9:31 PM - Dodgers think Roki Sasaki is finally on his way to realizing his potential after dominating Angels. Roki Sasaki’s eventful major league career finally appears to be going the way most everyone expected when he joined the Los Angeles Dodgers at the start of last season. Sasaki pitched a career-high seven innings of four-hit ball in a 10-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels, turning in the longest and most dominant start of his strange tenure in blue. The 24-year-old right-hander racked up a career-best eight strikeouts with no walks while doing it all with a burgeoning confidence he lacked for most of last season, when he flamed out as a starter before becoming an improbably successful reliever.
