The Dodgers are adding another key player to their rotation despite signing Tyler Glasnow last week.
The Dodgers have arrived to a millionaire agreement with Yamamoto of 325 million dollars for 12 years. The japanese player is known for his tremendous abilities on the mount and he is ready to be one of the best players in the league and a important player for the franchise.
Previously, in free agency, the Dodgers signed Shohei Ohtani. With the addition of Yamamoto, the Dodgers now have the present and the future of Japanese baseball.
With also two former MVPs in their roster (Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman), the Dodgers are looking as one of the favorite teams to win the World Series this year.
In the Dodgers organization they are hopeful this can give results for the season because they come from a unexpected elimination from the playoffs when the team lost against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
