Dodgers notes: Edwin Díaz, Shohei Ohtani, Josue De Paula
The Dodgers bullpen contains pitchers who’ve bounced back after a rough first season in Los Angeles— i.e. Tanner Scott— and those who have struggled since first donning the Dodger blue— i.e. Edwin Díaz. For a closer signed to a three-year, $69 million over the offseason, Díaz has come nowhere near close to meeting expectations, as […]
Dodgers are hurting, but found their footing at home
LOS ANGELES — Shohei Ohtani has not played in six of the last seven games, and is being placed on the injured list. Freddie Freeman missed two games in the last week and was the designated hitter for another game as he nurses a right knee issue. The Dodgers began their homestand with two frustrating […]
Edgardo Henríquez is turning heads and getting outs
LOS ANGELES — When Tarik Skubal walked off the mound with one out in the eighth inning with a slim lead on Tuesday night at Dodger Stadium, the top of the Cincinnati Reds batting order was due up, and in came Edgardo Henríquez out of the Dodgers bullpen. The hard-throwing right-hander allowed a double to […]
With or without Edwin Díaz, Dodgers bullpen should be fine
Remember when the Dodgers went to the market and spent a lot of money to sign Edwin Díaz, baseball’s number one available relief pitcher simply because they could? Well, that hasn’t worked out the way everybody hoped. Intentionally overlooking the possibility — small, although very real — that something clicks and Díaz can perform up […]
Dodgers minors: Logan Wagner’s first two-homer game in Double-A
Two games and two wins, as the Comets and Drillers were the only teams in action on Wednesday. Player of the Day Logan Wagner hasn’t had the easiest of transitions to Double-A, which is to be expected given he began the year in rookie ball. However, in this particular game against the Naturals, he was […]
Dodgers notes: Shohei Ohtani on injured list, Freddie Freeman sits
The Los Angeles Dodgers are in the final stretch of their push to get to the end of the season, and while they are winning much more as of late, they have to do their best to stay ahead of the Atlanta Braves for the second seed in the NL as they are still dealing […]
Dodgers see Red to complete sweep, extend win streak to 7
The Dodgers offense reawakened in a big way on Wednesday, as they completed a three-game sweep of the Cincinnati Reds with a 14-1 victory, extending their winning streak to a season-high seven games. Both Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Rhett Lowder were able to work around a single baserunner in the first inning, with Yamamoto in particular […]
Dodgers to call up top prospect Josue De Paula, per reports
Though the Dodgers did not call up an outfielder when active roster limits expanded on September 1, they have decided to call up Josue De Paula, their top prospect, directly from Double-A, per Alden González of ESPN, Fabian Ardaya and Katie Woo of The Athletic, Jack Harris of the California Post, and Maddie Lee of […]

Yoshinobu Yamamoto looks to make it seven wins in a row. WEDNESDAY GAME INFO
Dodgers on Deck: Friday, September 11 at Marlins
The Dodgers hit the road for a seven-game trip that could conceivably see them clinch a postseason berth, a division title, or perhaps both. The trip starts with a three-game series against the Miami Marlins beginning Friday night at loanDepot Park in Miami. Neither team has named any starting pitchers for the weekend series, but […]
Jackson Ferris continues finishing kick with 6-inning save
The Oklahoma City Comets outlasted the Sugar Land Space Cowboys 8-6 on Wednesday, going two games up on Sugar Land in the second half of Pacific Coast League standings, with 10 games left to play. Jackson Ferris continued his strong recent run by pitching the final six innings in relief, with seven strikeouts. More importantly, […]
Yoshinobu Yamamoto gets strikeout-happy Reds lineup
Yoshinobu Yamamoto starts as the Dodgers host the Reds for a final time, going for a second straight home sweep and potentially extending their current win streak to seven games. It’s a curious time in Yamamoto’s regular-season campaign, as he could feasibly tie last season’s innings total with four fewer regular-season starts, although that would […]
Dodgers minors: Zach Ehrhard’s perfect day at the plate
The playoffs started for the Loons and Tower Buzzers with very different results, while some usual suspects led the way for wins by the Comets and Drillers. Player of the Day Other players might have had more impactful games, but efficiently producing at a high level, Zach Ehrhard gets our vote as Player of the […]
Dodgers notes: Teoscar Hernández, Tarik Skubal, Will Smith
The Dodgers started off the month of September losing two straight against the St. Louis Cardinals, but they’ve turned things around over their current homestand with a six-game winning streak. Teoscar Hernández has been a key component to the Dodgers’ recent winning recipe, as the outfielder is now slashing .542/.633/.875 with a home run and […]
Tarik Skubal, Teoscar Hernández extend Dodgers win streak to 6 games
LOS ANGELES — Tarik Skubal pitched his longest start since joining the Dodgers, and Teoscar Hernández continued his excellent homestand in a 3-2 win over the Cincinnati Reds. The Dodgers’ six-game win streak matches their longest of the season, matching May 23-29 and August 17-23. Skubal, who was flipped with Yoshinobu Yamamoto to pitch Tuesday […]

Dodgers on Deck: Wednesday, September 9 vs. Reds
The Dodgers close out their nine-game homestand on Wednesday night, with one more game against the Cincinnati Reds. Yoshinobu Yamamoto starts Wednesday, and like Tuesday starter Tarik Skubal is set up to face the Reds twice in a row, as these two teams meet up again next week for four games at Great American Ball […]
Shohei Ohtani out of lineup as Dodgers ease him back into play
LOS ANGELES — After only one game back, Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani is out of the lineup on Tuesday, the fifth time in six days he isn’t starting. “He came out of yesterday well, but talking with the training staff, it’s more the thought of let’s build him up slowly,” manager Dave Roberts said prior […]
Dodgers flip top of starting rotation, with an eye toward October
The Dodgers flipped their rotation order slightly for the last two games of the homestand, with Tarik Skubal pitching Tuesday on four days rest, followed by Yoshinobu Yamamoto on Wednesday before the Thursday off day. “I know Mark [Prior, pitching coach] talked it out with both guys, but I don’t know exactly what the details […]
Alek Thomas sent outright to Triple-A Oklahoma City
Alek Thomas was the odd man out in the Dodgers outfield last week, when he was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on September 1, then was designated for assignment on Saturday to make room for Bobby Miller’s return to the 40-man roster. Now both are back with Oklahoma City, as Miller was optioned to Triple-A […]
Dodgers scoring 6 runs on only 3 hits is quite rare
The Dodgers beat the Cincinnati Reds 6-3 on Monday which seems like a totally normal score, though perhaps with a little more offense than the Dodgers put forth during their July-August malaise. They’ve now scored at least six runs in three straight games, a streak they’ve now achieved twice within their last eight contests. But […]
Emmet Sheehan made the most of his return
Emmet Sheehan had such a successful first start back with the Dodgers that he earned at least another, after striking out 10 Cincinnati Reds in Monday night’s win at Dodger Stadium, his first start in the majors in five weeks. “There was a lot of stuff going down, and try to figure stuff out in […]
Ontario IF Oswaldo Osorio wins California League player of week
Dodgers minor league infielder Oswaldo Osorio hit .500 last week for the playoff-bound Class-A Ontario Tower Buzzers, and for his efforts captured the final California League player of the week award of the 2026 season. Osorio started at first base, third base, and designated hitter last week for Ontario, and in his five contests had […]
Dodgers notes – Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, Andy Pages
Shohei Ohtani returned to the Dodgers lineup on Monday night against the Cincinnati Reds after missing four games dealing with lingering issues. He looked much more like himself that he has in a while. He very likely will not return as a pitcher this season, however. The Dodgers are hoping that being able to just […]
Red light turned green; all systems go for Emmet Sheehan
Based on tonight’s game alone, you could’ve fooled someone into believing Emmet Sheehan was the starting pitcher in this outing, putting up an All-Star season, as he led the way for a 6-3 win in his return to the bigs. With a scarcity of hits, particularly on the home side, the Dodgers saved their only […]
