Mandatory Credit: Jerome Miron-Imagn Images The Los Angeles Dodgers re-signed right-handed reliever Evan Phillips to a one-year, $6.5 million contract Tuesday.
To make room on the 40-man roster, catcher Ben Rortvedt was designated for assignment by the Dodgers for the second time this offseason in order to accommodate a roster addition.
Phillips, 31, was limited to seven appearances and one save last season before undergoing Tommy John surgery. In a Los Angeles bullpen that did not have a set closer in 2023 and 2024, Phillips took advantage of the situation to record 42 total saves in two seasons.
Over eight major league seasons, Phillips is 16-12 with a 3.36 ERA and 46 saves for the Atlanta Braves (2018), Baltimore Orioles (2018-20), Tampa Bay Rays (2021) and Dodgers.
