The Los Angeles Dodgers GM Brandon Gomes reveals the team’s strategy for rising star Roki Sasaki’s pitching role and his adaptation to MLB. Roki Sasaki‘s arrival to the Los Angeles Dodgers has created a wave of excitement in the MLB world.

The Los Angeles Dodgers were always the favorites to sign Roki Sasaki, but it wasn't because there was a deal already in place like many critics speculated.

It's no coincidence that Roki Sasaki decided to kick off his career in the U.S. this winter. There's a strategic reason behind his move.

Japanese sensation Roki Sasaki has joined the Los Angeles Dodgers, sparking speculation about other top-tier players from Japan potentially making their way to MLB. The MLB offseason has been dominated by two headline-making moves: Juan Soto signing a record-breaking $765 million deal with the New York Mets and Japanese phenom Roki Sasaki joining the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Although Roki Sasaki seemed destined for the Los Angeles Dodgers from the beginning, his agent Joel Wolfe believed the Japanese phenom could have easily wound up joining another team.
