Los Angeles Dodgers insider and Dodgers Nation host Doug McKain reported the Dodgers’ will hold their first workout for pitcher and catchers ahead of spring training Friday, Feb. 13.
McKain also stated the Dodgers’ first full-squad workout will come Tuesday, Feb. 17 at Camelback Ranch in Arizona.
The pitchers and catchers workout comes just over a week before the Dodgers begin their spring training campaign on Feb. 21 against the Los Angeles Angels, who took all six games against the Dodgers in the 2025 regular season.

With their pitchers and catchers reporting, the Dodgers will get a great look at some of their star players from last season, as well as players due for a return from extended stints on the injured list.
Gavin Stone and River Ryan are likely to report to spring training, and will look to earn spots with the Dodgers despite not having pitched in a professional game since 2024. Players like Landon Knack and Will Klein will also look to prove their long-term worth within the team during this period.
With a deep pitching staff and well-established core of starting pitchers, the remaining pitchers will have to compete for the limited amount of spots remaining among the Dodgers’ arms.
More news: What Should The Dodgers’ Next Offseason Move Be?
Beyond the pitchers and catchers, plenty more questions still surround the Dodgers’ team as a whole. They’re still yet to sign an outfielder, and could use the beginning of spring training to survey internal options, such as Ryan Ward.
Ward spent all of 2025 in Triple-A and absolutely tore up pitching at the lower level, even winning the Pacific Coast League’s MVP award. The Dodgers currently have five outfielders listed on their 40-man roster, the others being Andy Pages, Teoscar Hernandez, Alex Call and Michael Siani.
Call, Siani and Ward will likely be battling for the third spot if the Dodgers avoid making a move until spring training kicks off.
With spring training quickly approaching, the Dodgers still have plenty of work to do and decisions to make before the regular season kicks off.
