The World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers locked in a pair of key right-handed relievers for 2025 on Thursday, coming to terms on one-year deals with Michael Kopech and Brusdar Graterol.

Graterol agreed to a $2.8 million deal, according to The Athletic, while Kopech agreed to a $5.2 million contract, according to multiple outlets. Both deals avoided arbitration.

The Dodgers still have deals pending to avoid arbitration with three other key pieces of the bullpen: left-handers Anthony Banda and Alex Vesia, and right-hander Evan Philips.

Graterol was limited to seven appearances in the 2024 regular season because of shoulder and hamstring injuries. He returned to pitch in three of the five World Series games against the New York Yankees and had a 3.86 ERA in 2 1/3 innings.

Graterol, 26, is 11-9 with 11 saves and a 2.78 ERA in 188 career appearances (five starts) in six seasons for the Minnesota Twins (2019) and Dodgers (2020-24).

Kopech, 28, was 4-0 with six saves and a 1.13 ERA in 24 appearances with the Dodgers in 2024 after he was acquired near the trade deadline from the Chicago White Sox. He had a 3.00 ERA in 10 postseason appearances, pitching in four World Series games and earning the win in Game 3 of the National League Championship Series against the New York Mets.
