Dodgers Call Up Reliever Alexis Díaz From Minors Over a Month After Acquiring Him From the Reds
Alexis Díaz is back in the major leagues and ready to make his debut with the Los Angeles Dodgers, who acquired the 2023 All-Star reliever from the Cincinnati Reds over a month ago. Los Angeles called up Díaz and sent right-hander Julian Fernández to Triple-A Oklahoma City before Tuesday night's matchup with the Milwaukee Brewers as the NL West–leading Dodgers attempted to snap a four-game skid. The 28-year-old Díaz came to the Dodgers in a May 29 trade that sent minor league pitcher Mike Villani to the Reds. He had been with Triple-A Oklahoma City ever since, going 0–1 with a 9.64 earned run average in six appearances. While at Oklahoma City, Díaz walked seven and struck out three over 4 2/3 innings. 'I think that there's been some good and some not-so-good, just trying to be consistent with the delivery,' Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. 'The arm still works. The stuff is still good. But the consistency of strike-throwing is what we haven't seen yet from Alexis.' This has been a difficult season for Díaz. He opened the season on the injured list with a left hamstring strain, then went 0–0 with a 12.00 ERA in six appearances with Cincinnati. He lost his job as the Reds closer and was eventually sent to the minors before getting traded to the Dodgers. Díaz is the younger brother of New York Mets closer Edwin Díaz. He totaled 75 saves with the Reds from 2022–24. The 29-year-old Fernández was called up Monday and allowed two runs over two innings in a 9–1 loss to the Brewers. He is 3–0 with a 4.08 ERA in 24 games with Oklahoma City. In other Dodgers pitching news, right-hander Tyler Glasnow is expected to return from the injured list and start Wednesday's game at Milwaukee. Glasnow has been dealing with shoulder inflammation and last pitched for the Dodgers on April 27. 'I'm excited to get him back on the mound,' Roberts said. 'He's excited to be back on the mound. We'll see, but I'm expecting him to pitch well.'

Dodgers Place Kiké Hernández on Injured List and Call Up James Outman to Headline Series of Moves
Los Angeles Dodgers utilityman Kiké Hernández went on the injured list with left elbow inflammation, and outfielder James Outman got called up from the minors among a series of moves the NL West leaders made Monday. The Dodgers also called up right-handed pitcher Julian Fernández, optioned left-hander Justin Wrobleski to Triple-A Oklahoma City, and designated infielder CJ Alexander for assignment before beginning a three-game series with the Milwaukee Brewers. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Hernández started getting bothered by the elbow issue during a series in Cleveland at the end of May. 'There was a slide there at home plate where it really started to act up and bother him,' Roberts said. 'At that point in time, he kept it to himself, just wanting to be out there and compete. It just continually got worse and really impacted his offense and his swing. And so just a couple of days ago, it really reached a head where it was pretty much intolerable.' Hernández has hit just .109 (6 of 55) since the start of June. The 33-year-old is batting .195 with a .259 on-base percentage, eight home runs, and 22 RBIs in 71 games this season. Roberts said the Dodgers are hopeful Hernández could return shortly after the All-Star break. Outman, 28, batted .125 (3 of 24) with two home runs and four RBIs in nine games during an earlier stint with Los Angeles this season. He has been hitting .289 with a .378 on-base percentage, 20 home runs, 74 RBIs, and 14 steals in 70 games with Triple-A Oklahoma City. The Dodgers arrived in Milwaukee after getting swept in a three-game home series with Houston that underscored their roster issues due to various nagging injuries. Outfielder Teoscar Hernández and second baseman Tommy Edman didn't play in a 5–1 loss to the Astros on Sunday and remained out of the lineup Monday, though neither player was placed on the injured list. Teoscar Hernández fouled a ball off his left foot, and Edman fouled a ball off his right foot Saturday in a 6–4 loss to the Astros. Edman ended up with a fractured toe. Roberts said both players could be available off the bench the next couple of days and expressed hope they might be able to start Wednesday. Fernández, 29, was 3–0 with a 4.08 ERA and 32 strikeouts over 28 2/3 innings in 24 appearances with Oklahoma City. Wrobleski, 24, was 4–3 with a 4.50 ERA and 40 strikeouts over 40 innings in eight appearances with Los Angeles. The Dodgers had just claimed Alexander off waivers from the New York Yankees last week before designating him for assignment Monday.
