The Los Angeles Dodgers have re-signed relief pitcher Blake Treinen to a two-year, $22 million contract. Treinen, who played a crucial role in the Dodgers' 2024 World Series victory with 3 saves in the post-season, had a 1.93 ERA in the regular season and a 2.19 ERA in the postseason. His sweeper pitch, known for its velocity and movement, was a significant factor in his performance. The Dodgers' decision to bring back Treinen, the heart of their bullpen, is seen as a strategic move to bolster their bullpen, especially after his contribution to the team's championship run and to defend their title.
