Three hours passed after the non-tender deadline and there was no news on which pre-arbitration and arbitration-eligible players were tendered contracts by the Dodgers until a few minutes into the 8 o’clock hour when Ken Gurnick tweeted that all eligible players were tendered contracts (he’s since deleted the tweet). It seemed as if that would conclude all the deadline news for the night until Gurnick dropped this little tidbit:
RHP Yimi Garcia was non-tendered.

Afterward, the Los Angeles Dodgers made the Scott Alexander and Austin Barnes signing official with Jorge Castillo and a few others reporting that all arb-eligible players but Yimi Garcia had been tendered contracts.
Yimi Garcia was non-tendered. He was the only one for the Dodgers.
The Dodgers tended contracts to: Cody Bellinger, Pedro Baez, Kiké Hernández, Max Muncy, Joc Pederson, Ross Stripling, Corey Seager, Chris Taylor, and Julio Urías.

So, as it stands, the Yimi era has ended in Los Angeles. He finished his Dodger career with a 3.66 ERA, 4.47 FIP, and a 0.1 fWAR in 159.2 innings pitched and 165 appearances.
