BREAKING: Dodgers Non-Tender Fan Favorite Pitcher, Open 40-Man Roster Spots

The Los Angeles Dodgers have non-tendered right-handed pitcher Brent Honeywell, per Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times. In addition to Honeywell, the Dodgers are also non-tendering left-handed reliever Zach Logue.

With these two moves, the Dodgers 40-man roster will sit at 36.

Logue made just two appearances for L.A. this season, allowing four earned runs while striking out four. Honeywell, however, became a fan favorite pitcher, and was crucial to the team’s World Series run in 2024.

Honeywell became an innings-eater in October, and was deployed on multiple occasions to save the rest of the bullpen for a future game in the series. Honeywell was used in the second-to-last game of both the National League Championship Series and the World Series, showing his true worth as a savior for the L.A. bullpen.

After Game 5 of the NLCS against the New York Mets, when Honeywell threw 4.2 innings in a Dodgers loss, Max Muncy told Honeywell he just won the team Game 6. The Dodgers went on to win the series in Game 6 in a bullpen game — with a rested bullpen thanks to Honeywell.

Honeywell was designated for assignment by the Pittsburgh Pirates in July and was claimed by the Dodgers. Across 34.1 innings pitched in the regular season, he had a 2.62 ERA. In the postseason, he had three appearances, pitching 8.2 crucial innings that L.A. needed to win the World Series.

Now, Honeywell will be a free agent, but could still return to Los Angeles. Since L.A. wanted the roster spot, though, it likely wouldn’t be on a major league deal.
