3 days agoFree-agent starting pitcher Roki Sasaki will be posted by the Chiba Lotte Marines, which opens the door for the 23-year-old to pitch in the MLB during the 2025 season. Sasaki is considered one of the most talented pitchers in the world and is expected to be one of, if not the top pitcher, on the free-agent market this offseason. The right-hander has been one of the most dominant pitchers in the world and was a crucial piece in leading Japan to a championship during the World Baseball Classic. Through 394 2/3 professional innings, Sasaki has tallied an incredible 505 punchouts with a 2.15 ERA. The Los Angeles Dodgers are expected to be one of the favorites to land him during free agency. If he does sign with an MLB team this offseason, Sasaki will be a popular pick and likely a top-20 starting pitcher in most fantasy drafts.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller
