Gearing up for bullpen role
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Monday that Hurt isn't considered a candidate for a rotation spot and is competing for a bullpen role on the team's Opening Day roster, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis
Hurt rose through the Dodgers farm system as a starter and looked to be making a case for a full-time appointment in the big-league rotation following a breakout 2023 campaign in which he amassed 155 strikeouts in 94 innings across three stops. However, after he required Tommy John surgery in July 2024, Hurt's trajectory appears to have changed. Though Hurt pitched effectively out of the Triple-A Oklahoma City bullpen late last season upon completing his recovery from surgery and benefited from a normal offseason, the Dodgers won't ask him to get stretched back out again in 2026. The Dodgers' ample depth is likely a major factor in the decision; even with Blake Snell (shoulder) and Gavin Stone (shoulder) expected to open the season on the shelf, the team still has plenty of appealing candidates (Emmet Sheehan, Justin Wrobleski, River Ryan, Ben Casparius and Landon Knack) to fill out the final two spots in the projected six-man rotation.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Hurt got into better shape last offseason and had a breakout year in the upper levels of the minors. He slimmed down to a still large 6-foot-3, 240 pounds and logged 155 strikeouts in 94 innings across Double-A, Triple-A and the majors. Hurt only logged two innings in one late-season MLB appearance, but he struck out three without allowing a baserunner and retired Fernando Tatis, Juan Soto and Manny Machado in order. Hurt's plus fastball can touch 98 mph and sits at 95 mph, but his upper-80s changeup might be his best pitch. He also mixes in a cutter and a curveball. He threw between four and five innings in 10 of his 26 minor-league appearances, but he never completed more than five frames. Hurt turns 26 in May, as his draft year was the pandemic year of 2020 and he underperformed at USC and wasn't in good enough shape to throw consistent strikes until 2023. The Dodgers will always have plenty of options for the rotation, so Hurt may work as a big-league reliever for stretches this season, but he has enough upside as a starter for the Dodgers to keep him on that track for at least another season.
