Dodgers Put Blake Treinen on 15-Day Injured List

It forces a short-term bullpen shift to Chayce McDermott as Brock Stewart nears reinstatement and Evan Phillips is expected to return in early July.

Overview

  • The Dodgers placed right-handed reliever Blake Treinen on the 15-day injured list with right elbow inflammation, and the team did not immediately specify when or how the issue began.
  • As the corresponding roster move the club recalled right-hander Chayce McDermott, a 27-year-old frequent taxi-squad reliever who has thrown one major-league inning for Los Angeles this season.
  • Treinen had rebounded from a difficult 2025 to post a 3.52 ERA this year and was the winning pitcher in the Dodgers’ recent walk-off game before being moved to the IL.
  • Manager Dave Roberts said the Dodgers hope to reinstate Brock Stewart from the injured list soon and expect Evan Phillips, coming back from Tommy John surgery, to be available in early July.
  • The 15-day injured list placement creates a near-term late-inning gap the team must manage through short-term call-ups and upcoming returns, and it reduces experienced bullpen depth during a stretch of close games.
