Dodgers Activate Lefty Jack Dreyer and Option Paul Gervase

A shoulder scan found only inflammation with no structural damage, clearing him to return to the Dodgers' high-leverage bullpen without a rehab outing.

Overview

  • The Dodgers announced they activated left-hander Jack Dreyer from the injured list and optioned right-hander Paul Gervase to the minors.
  • Dreyer was put on the 15-day IL after feeling shoulder soreness while warming up and receiving scans that showed inflammation but no structural damage.
  • The club elected not to give Dreyer a rehab assignment and expected him to miss only the minimum time on the IL.
  • Before the IL stint Dreyer had a 2.08 ERA with 24 strikeouts in 21.2 innings, and the team plans to use him again in late-inning, high-leverage situations.
  • The return reduces short-term strain on a bullpen coping with other absences and will be monitored closely for any recurrence that could force more roster moves.
