Tyler Glasnow was initially expected to miss the minimum amount of time on the IL with back spasms. A month later, he's been moved to the 60-day IL, meaning he can't return until the second week of July at the earliest. Dave Roberts said he's not currently throwing. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers traded LHP Antoine Kelly to the Cubs. Kelly joined the team on a minor league deal this offseason and had a 5.14 ERA across 21 innings at Triple-A Oklahoma City. He's a former second-round pick of the Brewers. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Roki Sasaki over his last four starts: 24.1 IP 13 H 4 ER 5 BB 29 K That's a 1.48 ERA. “This is the guy that we saw on video in Japan and that we hoped to get. ... He went through some tough times, some doubts, but he’s gotten to the other side.” - Dodgers manager Dave Roberts.

The Dodgers traded James Outman to the Twins for Brock Stewart ahead of last year's deadline. Stewart has appeared in six games over the last 10 months, spending a majority of his time on the IL. Outman was just DFA'd after hitting .151 with an OPS of .526 with Minnesota www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers announced that Max Muncy exited Thursday's game vs. the Diamondbacks with shortness of breath and to rule out a concussion. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Max Muncy was forced to exit Thursday's game against the Diamondbacks after being involved in a scary head-on collision at first base. Here's the latest on the injury to the Dodgers' third baseman: www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Shohei Ohtani the hitter this season (and NL ranks): 161 wRC+ (T-1st) .941 OPS (3rd) .420 OBP (1st) .301 AVG (9th) Shohei Ohtani the pitcher this season (61 innings). He's one inning short of qualifying. If he did: 0.74 ERA (1st) 0.79 WHIP (T-1st) .144 BAA (1st) He's unreal.

In a bit of a surprise (at least to me), Santiago Espinal cleared waivers and was sent outright to Triple-A OKC. The Dodgers DFA'd Espinal to make room for Kiké Hernández. Now he remains in the organization, which is suddenly short on right-handed bats. Good news for LA. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Shohei Ohtani has made nine starts this year for the Dodgers: 6 IP, 1 ER, 7 K vs. COL (0 hits) 5 IP, 0 ER, 4 K vs SD 7 IP, 0 ER, 8 K vs SF 7 IP, 2 ER, 8 K vs HOU 6 IP, 1 ER, 9 K vs MIA 6 IP, 0 ER, 7 K vs SF 6 IP, 1 ER, 10 K vs NYM 6 IP, 0 ER, 2 K vs TOR 6 IP, 0 ER, 6 K vs CLE He has a 0.82 ERA.

Teoscar Hernández has a left hamstring strain. TBD if he has to go on the injured list. If he does, Alex Call would get more playing time. Hyeseong Kim appears to be an outfield option, too. Potential replacements on the 40-man: Tyler Fitzgerald, Ryan Ward, Alek Thomas. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Teoscar Hernández is out of Wednesday's game after he appeared to injure his left hamstring while running out a ground ball. He was replaced by Hyeseong Kim in left field. The Dodgers lost Kiké Hernàndez to the injured list before the game. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Kiké Hernández's MRI results showed a "significant tear" in his oblique. He's going to miss significant time, but currently has no timeline to return to the Dodgers. Just brutal after he worked so hard to get back from his elbow surgery. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Dodgers dropped Mookie Betts in Tuesday's lineup: 1. Shohei Ohtani, DH 2. Andy Pages, CF 3. Freddie Freeman, 1B 4. Mookie Betts, SS 5. Kyle Tucker, RF 6. Teoscar Hernández, LF 7. Will Smith, C 8. Miguel Rojas, 2B 9. Kiké Hernández, 3B Betts has a .494 OPS since returning www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers officially activated Kiké Hernández off the injured list and designated Santiago Espinal for assignment. That's great news for Hyeseong Kim (obviously) and even better news regarding Max Muncy's injury: www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers are 33-20. They're finally playing up to their potential. What's going to happen the rest of the year? I came up with some bold predictions including: - Blockbuster trade - Surprise All-Star/Gold Glove - Shohei Ohtani accomplishes his goal www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

With Kiké Hernández returning today, the Dodgers have another tough decision to make: 1. Santiago Espinal DFA 2. Hyeseong Kim Option 3. Max Muncy IL Espinal DFA seemed obvious, but Kim is 6-for-his-last 40. "We’ve got to have a tough conversation," Dave Roberts said. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers bullpen last allowed a run on May 12. In the 38 innings since: 38 IP 0 ER 13 H 15 BB 42 K Just pure, historic dominance.

The Dodgers bullpen has pitched 38 consecutive scoreless innings. The pitchers involved: - Tanner Scott - Alex Vesia - Blake Treinen - Kyle Hurt - Edgardo Henriquez - Will Klein - Jack Dreyer - Jonathan Hernàndez - Paul Gervase - Chayce McDermott - Wyatt Mills - Charlie Barnes

Max Muncy this season: .258/.363/.515 12 HR .878 OPS 147 wRC+ 5 OAA 6 DRS Muncy has been one of the best all around third baseman in MLB this year. The Dodgers can't afford to lose him to injury. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Former Dodger Chris Taylor has retired from MLB. Taylor was part of the Dodgers' 2020, 2024 and 2025 World Series teams (although he was released in May '25). He was an All-Star in 2021. The Dodgers acquired Taylor in 2016 and he became a core member of the team for nine years.

Dodgers two-way star Shohei Ohtani this season: Pitcher: 49 IP, 0.73 ERA, 54 K, .163 BAA Hitter: .885 OPS, 8 HR, 26 RBI, 6 SB, 146 wRC+ He's first in fWAR (3.2). He's first in bWAR (3.7). He's the best player in baseball, and there isn't a close second.

Shohei Ohtani is pitching and hitting for the first time since April 22 today for the Dodgers vs. the Padres: Shohei Ohtani, DH Mookie Betts, SS Freddie Freeman, 1B Kyle Tucker, RF Will Smith, C Max Muncy, 3B Andy Pages, CF Teoscar Hernández, LF Hyeseong Kim, 2B www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Orioles claimed outfielder Mike Siani off waivers from the Dodgers. The Dodgers DFA'd him last week after acquiring outfielder Alek Thomas from the Diamondbacks. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers are acquiring left-handed pitcher Eric Lauer. He had a 6.69 ERA with the Blue Jays before getting DFA'd this past week. However, he had a 3.18 ERA across 104.2 innings last year. He pitched 5.2 scoreless innings against the Dodgers in the World Series. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Dodgers/Padres pitching probables this week: 5/18: Yoshinobu Yamamoto vs. Michael King 5/19: Emmet Sheehan vs. Griffin Canning 5/20: Shohei Ohtani vs. Randy Vasquez The Dodgers moved Ohtani to Wednesday with Thursday off. He'll "probably" hit and pitch, per Dave Roberts. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers placed Jack Dreyer on the injured list with shoulder discomfort. He has a 2.08 ERA across a team-high 21.2 innings in relief this year. He's thrown 11.1 consecutive scoreless innings. Huge loss for the Dodgers bullpen ahead of their series with the Padres. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Mookie Betts and Will Smith are out of the Dodgers lineup on Sunday as LA goes for their first sweep in a month: Shohei Ohtani, DH Freddie Freeman, 1B Andy Pages, CF Kyle Tucker, RF Teoscar Hernández, LF Max Muncy, 3B Dalton Rushing, C Miguel Rojas, SS Hyeseong Kim, 2B www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers placed Blake Snell on the injured list with loose bodies in his elbow. He made his season debut last weekend after opening the year on the IL due to his shoulder. Edwin Díaz is out until after the All-Star break after undergoing surgery for loose bodies. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Blake Snell was scratched from his scheduled start on Friday. Now, Charlie Barnes has a locker at Angel Stadium. Here's everything you need to know about Barnes, who the Dodgers claimed off waivers from the Cubs last week: www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Dodgers lineup on Friday vs Angels: 1. Shohei Ohtani DH 2. Mookie Betts SS 3. Will Smith C 4. Kyle Tucker RF 5. Andy Pages CF 6. Max Muncy 3B 7. Teoscar Hernández LF 8. Dalton Rushing 1B 9. Hyeseong Kim 2B Blake Snell scratched. Will Klein starting. Freddie Freeman out. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers trade for outfielder Alek Thomas is official. He brings plus-defense in centerfield and plus-speed, but has struggled with his bat (career .634 OPS). Thomas will report to the Arizona Complex League where he'll likely work with the team's coaches on his swing. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Hyeseong Kim since being called up for Mookie Betts: .289 AVG 5 XBH 8 RBI 5 SB .748 OPS 114 wRC+ He's played above-average defense and been a "spark plug" for the Dodgers, as Dave Roberts put it. He played too well to warrant being sent back down, and LA rewarded him for it.

The Dodgers are optioning Alex Freeland for Mookie Betts. This is the right decision for LA. Hyeseong Kim has played too well to be sent down. Freeland needs everyday at-bats in Triple-A. Santiago Espinal will be with the team until Kiké Hernández returns in two weeks. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers face their biggest decision of the season thus far with Mookie Betts returning today: - Option Hyeseong Kim - Option Alex Freland - DFA Santiago Espinal Here's why that decision isn't as obvious as it appears — and what LA will likely do: www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Brock Stewart's current Dodgers tenure: 7/31: Traded to LA for James Outman 8/3-8/9: Four appearances 8/12: Placed on IL 9/26: Season-ending surgery announced 3/22: Placed on IL to open season 5/6: Activated off IL 5/6-5/8: Two appearances 5/9: Placed on IL Just brutal. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers placed Brock Stewart on the injured list with a left foot bone spur. He's made just six appearances for LA since being acquired at last year's trade deadline. Just brutal. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers made a move, claiming left-handed pitcher Charlie Barnes off waivers from the Cubs. Barnes has a career 6.15 ERA in 41 innings at the MLB level. He's shown good strikeout numbers in Triple-A. Tommy Edman was transferred to the 60-day IL. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers' rotation (and expected order) for the next two weeks: Emmet Sheehan Blake Snell Justin Wrobleski Roki Sasaki Yoshinobu Yamamoto Shohei Ohtani With Tyler Glasnow on the injured list, the team won't have to decide who to remove from the rotation for now. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers are activating Blake Snell off the injured list to start on Saturday, a week earlier than expected. While it's great news for the Dodgers to get Snell back, it leads to some concern about Tyler Glasnow going on the injured list: www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Mookie Betts' return to the Dodgers appears imminent as he begins what should be a quick rehab assignment on Friday. That will set up a very difficult decision for the Dodgers. Option Alex Freeland/Hyeseong Kim to Triple-A, or DFA Santiago Espinal? www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Tyler Glasnow left Wednesday's Dodgers vs. Astros game with low back pain, per the team. Glasnow has a 2.72 ERA with 49 strikeouts across 39.2 innings this season. Here was the final warm-up pitch he threw before walking off the mound:

Tyler Glasnow has exited Wednesday's Dodgers vs. Astros game in the bottom of the second inning with an apparent injury. He came out to the mound for the second inning, and was then met by Dave Roberts and a trainer. He threw 19 pitches in the first inning. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers offense over their last four games: 7 runs scored 0 home runs 4 extra-base hits .225 batting average (29 hits in 129 at-bats) They've lost all four games.

The Gavin Lux trade last year is a perfect example of what makes the Dodgers organization so great. LA got Mike Sirota and a draft pick (which became Charles Davalan). Their stats at High-A: Sirota: .325/.464/.649, 5 HR, 13 RBIs Davalan: .302/.394/.581, 6 HR, 17 RBIs www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers acquired four players via trade in April. Here's a look at how their new players are faring thus far: www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

April of the Dodgers' back-to-back title defense season is officially in the books. I handed out team awards and superlatives including MVP, Cy Young, biggest disappointment/surprises and more! Let me know what you agree/disagree with: www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

Max Muncy started wearing glasses on April 30, 2025. It's officially been one year. His stats for the Dodgers (101 games): .274/.397/.572 28 HR 74 RBI 77 K/64 BB .969 OPS 166 wRC+ 411 wOBA He's been one of the best hitters in baseball since making the change.

Shohei Ohtani has made five pitching starts this season: 6 IP, 5 H, 1 ER, 9 K vs. Marlins (didn't hit) 6 IP, 5 H, 0 ER, 7 K vs. Giants 6 IP, 2 H, 1 ER, 10 K vs. Mets (didn't hit) 6 IP, 4 H, 0 ER, 2 K vs. Blue Jays 6 IP, 1 H, 0 ER, 6 K vs. Guardians He has a 0.60 ERA.

Tyler Fitzgerald with the Giants in 2024: .280/.334/.497 15 HR 34 RBI 17 SB .831 OPS 135 OPS+ The Dodgers will try to help him rediscover his bat following the trade. He’s played every defensive position except catcher at the MLB level. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...

The Dodgers made a trade with the Blue Jays, acquiring infielder/outfielder Tyler Fitzgerald for cash. Fitzgerald is a former Giants fourth-round pick who’s hit .252 with an OPS of .739 across 178 MLB games. He’s played at every position except catcher. www.si.com/mlb/dodgers/...
