Frasso (undisclosed) signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Saturday, Aram Leighton of JustBaseball.com reports.
After turning in a 5.49 ERA and 1.58 WHIP over 77 innings at Triple-A Oklahoma City this past season and being non-tendered by the Dodgers in November, Frasso will officially return to the organization for 2026. The 27-year-old is still waiting on his first promotion to the majors, but he will likely need to show significant improvement in the minors before getting called up for his MLB debut.

Dodgers' Michael Siani: Scooped up by Dodgers
Rotowire
The Dodgers claimed Siani off waivers from Atlanta on Friday.
Siani has gone from St. Louis to Atlanta and now to the defending champs via waivers this offseason. The speedster is a terrific defensive center fielder but has slashed just .221/.277/.270 at the big-league level and spent most of the 2025 season in the minors. Siani has minor-league options remaining, and if he's still in the Dodgers organization on Opening Day, it will likely be at Triple-A Oklahoma City.
Dodgers' Brusdar Graterol: Will be ready for spring training
Rotowire
Dodgers general manager Brandon Gomes has said that Graterol (shoulder) will be "full-go" for spring training, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Graterol missed the entire 2025 season following November 2024 labrum surgery on his right shoulder. He experienced a setback with the shoulder during the second half, but it appears the hard-throwing reliever is back on track now. Graterol has hardly pitched the last two seasons because of injury, but he held a 1.20 ERA over 68 appearances in 2023, his last full season.
The Dodgers signed Diaz to a three-year, $69 million contract Tuesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
For the second straight offseason the Dodgers have inked the top closer on the free-agent market. The $23 million average annual value sets a new record for a reliever. Diaz will turn 32 in March but is coming off one of his best seasons, having collected a 1.63 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 98:21 K:BB over 66.1 innings while notching 28 saves. He will take over as closer for the two-time defending World Series champs.

Dodgers' Roki Sasaki: Expected to open 2026 in rotation
Rotowire
Dodgers general manager Brandon Gomes said in November that Sasaki will "absolutely" be in the team's starting rotation next season, Brian Murphy of MLB.com reports.
Sasaki thrived down the stretch of the regular season and playoffs as a reliever, but Gomes noted that shifting Sasaki to the bullpen was more about "trying to get his delivery back." Gomes added of Sasaki that "we're definitely viewing him as a starter and a really good one." Sasaki posted a 4.72 ERA while walking 22 batters over 34.1 innings in his eight starts for the Dodgers in 2025, but the team is confident Sasaki's struggles in the rotation were related to his mechanics, which they feel have been corrected. The 24-year-old is sure to have workload restrictions as he transitions back to a starting role, though the Dodgers' preference for a six-man rotation will make that easier.

Dodgers' Mookie Betts: Staying at shortstop next season
Rotowire
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Monday that Betts will remain at shortstop next season, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
The news comes as no surprise after Betts earned a plus-6 in Outs Above Average in 2025 in his first season as a full-time shortstop. Betts played just one inning in right field in 2025, so he will enter the 2026 campaign with only shortstop eligibility in fantasy leagues.
Dodgers' Miguel Rojas: Spending final season with Dodgers
Rotowire
Rojas signed a one-year, $5.5 million contract with the Dodgers on Wednesday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.
Rojas has previously stated his intentions to retire from professional baseball after the 2026 campaign, and he will officially remain in Dodger blue for what will be his 13th and final MLB season. The 36-year-old slashed .262/.318/.397 with 27 RBI and 35 runs scored across 317 regular-season plate appearances in 2025 and figures to retain his role as a utility infielder for Los Angeles.
