Logan Webb's Funny Reaction to Dodgers' New Pitcher
Los Angeles, USASat Jan 18 2025
San Francisco Giants pitcher Logan Webb had a creative way to share his thoughts about the Los Angeles Dodgers' latest addition, Japanese star Roki Sasaki. Instead of using words, Webb chose a GIF from the popular movie "Space Jam" to express his feelings. This GIF showed the powerful Monstars team, hinting at the Dodgers' growing strength.
Webb's reaction came after Sasaki, a 23-year-old pitcher with a impressive 2. 02 ERA in Japan, announced his decision to join the Dodgers. The Dodgers, who had recently won the 2024 World Series, added another big name to their roster. Sasaki's signing bonus was reported to be $6. 5 million.
Roki Sasaki has made a name for himself as one of the brightest overseas talents. He was part of Team Japan when they won the 2023 World Baseball Classic, playing alongside future Dodgers teammates Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto.
Webb's team, the Giants, has also been busy during the free agency period. They signed Willy Adames and legendary pitcher Justin Verlander. However, the Dodgers made another move that upset the Giants. They signed two-time Cy Young award winner Blake Snell away from the Giants in November.
The Giants, who had a below-average season last year with a record of 80-82, face a tough road ahead. The NL West division is packed with competitive teams, including the Dodgers, Padres, and Diamondbacks.
