The Los Angeles Dodgers have officially re-signed star pitcher Jack Flaherty to a two-year contract, solidifying their starting rotation for the upcoming MLB seasons. The deal, announced earlier today, demonstrates the Dodgers’ commitment to maintaining their competitive edge in the league.

Flaherty, who joined the Dodgers mid-season in 2024 after a trade from the Baltimore Orioles, played a pivotal role in helping Los Angeles secure their playoff berth. His consistent performance and ability to deliver in high-pressure situations made him a standout addition to the team’s pitching staff. Over his tenure with the Dodgers last season, Flaherty posted a 3.45 ERA with 82 strikeouts in 78 innings, proving his value as a frontline starter.

Dodgers President of Baseball Operations Andrew Friedman expressed enthusiasm about the signing. “Jack has been an incredible asset to our rotation since his arrival. His competitive spirit and work ethic align perfectly with the culture we strive to build here. We’re excited to have him back for the next two seasons,” Friedman said in a statement.

Flaherty, a Southern California native, has also spoken about how much playing close to home has meant to him. “Being part of this organization and pitching in front of family and friends has been a dream come true,” he shared. “I’m thrilled to continue my journey with the Dodgers and look forward to what we can accomplish together.”

This re-signing signals the Dodgers’ intent to remain a powerhouse in the National League while providing stability to a rotation that has faced injuries and free-agent losses in recent years. With Flaherty locked in, the Dodgers are well-positioned to chase another World Series title.
