LOS ANGELES— The Los Angeles Dodgers have officially announced their domestic Opening Day roster for the 2025 Major League Baseball regular season before they begin a three-game series against the Detroit Tigers today at Dodger Stadium.

Two-way (1): Shohei Ohtani

Pitchers (13): Anthony Banda, Ben Casparius, Jack Dreyer, Luis García, Tyler Glasnow, Dustin May, Roki Sasaki, Tanner Scott, Blake Snell, Blake Treinen, Alex Vesia, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Kirby Yates

Catcher (2): Austin Barnes, Will Smith

Infielders (4): Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, Max Muncy, Miguel Rojas

Outfielders (3): Michael Conforto, Teoscar Hernández, Andy Pages,

Utility (3): Tommy Edman, Chris Taylor, Kiké Hernández

Prior to the start of the Tokyo Series, the Dodgers made several roster moves, including multiple moves to the injured list and other options to the minor leagues.

60-day Injured List (5): Clayton Kershaw, Brusdar Graterol, Michael Grove, Gavin Stone, River Ryan

15-day Injured List (6): Evan Phillips, Kyle Hurt, Michael Kopech, Tony Gonsolin, Emmet Sheehan, Edgardo Henriquez

For the second straight year, the Dodgers are using a thirteen-player split. This will give the Dodgers five starting pitchers and eight bullpen arms. Ohtani will still retain two-way player status, so when he returns to the mound, he’ll give the Dodgers fourteen pitchers on the roster.

This will be the Dodgers roster, barring any injuries, until mid-April, when they’ll start to active a few arms off the 15-day Injured List, such as Evan Phillips and possibly Tony Gonsolin.
