Dodgers Reportedly Among Teams Showing Interest In 2.42 ERA Free Agent Pitcher

The Los Angeles Dodgers may be exploring opportunities to strengthen their bullpen by targeting free agent pitcher Jonathan Loáisiga, according to reports from the MLB Network's Jon Morosi. Loáisiga, who spent his early career with the New York Yankees, posted a solid 3.54 ERA over 193 games but struggled with a 4.25 ERA in 2025.

Nonetheless, he rebounded impressively, tossing a 2.42 ERA over 67 games with the Arizona Diamondbacks. His ability to limit home runs, allowing only three in 67 innings, stands out as particularly valuable. Loáisiga's performance, including stellar metrics in walk rate, chase rate, ground ball rate, and hard-hit rate, suggests he could be a valuable addition to the Dodgers' roster.

If the team were to lose key relievers such as Blake Treinen, Alex Vesia, or Kris Bubic, Loáisiga's skills could fill that gap effectively. As one of five teams vying for his services, the Dodgers will likely face competition, but their roster's star power could give them an edge in securing his signature.
