Jack Flaherty, a right-handed pitcher known for his standout fashion sense and passion for design, recently collaborated with Grand Central Market LA and artist C.W. Moss to launch limited-edition merchandise celebrating the Los Angeles Dodgers’ 2024 World Series victory.

Jack Flaherty’s 2024 Season Highlights
Flaherty began the 2024 MLB season with the Detroit Tigers, signing a one-year, $14 million contract. In 18 starts, he posted a solid 7-5 record with a 2.95 ERA and 133 strikeouts. Midseason, he was traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers for two minor-league prospects, marking a pivotal move for both Flaherty and the Dodgers.
With the Dodgers, Flaherty went 6-2 with a 3.58 ERA and 61 strikeouts in 10 starts. Despite inconsistent postseason performances, Flaherty contributed key moments during the Dodgers’ championship run:
- NLDS Game 2 vs. Padres: Took the loss, allowing four runs in 5.1 innings.
- NLCS Game 1 vs. Mets: Delivered a dominant seven scoreless innings in a shutout win.
- World Series Game 1 vs. Yankees: Secured the win, giving up just two runs in 5.1 innings.
- World Series Game 5: Struggled but benefited from the Dodgers’ potent offense, helping clinch the team’s eighth franchise title.
Future Prospects
Flaherty, now a free agent, enters the offseason with solid regular-season credentials and a championship ring to his name. His ability to perform under pressure, combined with his unique off-field ventures, makes him an intriguing option for teams looking to bolster their rotation and bring a multifaceted personality to their clubhouse.
