Who closes games for the Dodgers now?

“I do feel comfortable with a handful of guys, really, that I feel that can close out games for us,” Roberts said. “So right now, I’m not gonna name a closer.” The Dodgers have been hesitant to name a closer pretty much since left the organization. Even as was the clear usual choice as closer when healthy in 2023 and 2024, they didn’t name him as closer. But even if anointed, the title can always be temporary. Roberts did not hesitate to remove Jansen from closing duties in his later years with the club, especially in the postseason. Generally speaking, the Dodgers don’t like to paint themselves into a corner. Naming a closer doesn’t really accomplish much other than ego boosting. It took someone with Díaz’s stature and accomplishments to stray from that path. Alex Vesia has earned the two saves not recorded by Díaz on the Dodgers this year. Given how they’ve been used and their career track records, expect and to get closing opportunities as well. Those three were mentioned by name by Roberts on Monday, and they’ve pitched in the highest-leverage situations this season on the staff among active pitchers. A dozen different Dodgers recorded saves last year, and a whopping 14 pitchers did so in 2024 (15, counting ’s championship-clincher). Today’s question is a simple one: **which Dodgers pitcher(s) would you like to see close games with Edwin Díaz on the shelf?**
