Roki's Press Conference


Jan 17, 2025. 4:00 pm: Japanese ace Roki Sasaki has officially signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers, the reigning World Series champions. Known for his remarkable talent and record-breaking pitches, Sasaki's addition is expected to strengthen the Dodgers' already formidable roster as they aim to defend their title in the upcoming season.


Roki Sasaki is a rising star in Japanese baseball.
Here's the Scoop:
• He's a Japanese phenom: Sasaki is a young (born in 2001) pitcher for the Chiba Lotte Marines in Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) 
• He throws heat: Back in high school, he broke the Japanese high school record with a fastball clocked at 101 mph!
• Dominating Debut: In 2022, he threw a perfect game and tied the NPB record for strikeouts in a single game 

Why All The attention?
• MLB Bound?: Sasaki has expressed a desire to play in Major League Baseball (MLB) someday, and his talent has scouts drooling.
• Age Restriction: There are rules about young players coming to MLB, so it might be a few years before he makes the jump.
• Heating Up Competition: In the meantime, MLB teams are keeping a close eye on him, with the Yankees, LA Dodgers, and Mets being some of the clubs that sent scouts to see his recent starts.

While he might not be in MLB yet, Roki Sasaki is definitely a name to remember for the future!
