Los Angeles Dodgers

Blake Treinen

RP

Treinen injured his throwing shoulder while warming up in the bullpen during Saturday's 4-3 win over the Giants, and the injury is severe enough for the veteran reliever to be shelved for the rest of the 2026 campaign and postseason. He had recently returned from a nearly three-month stint on the IL due to an elbow injury, appearing in seven games since that reinstatement and posting a 4.05 ERA and 1.65 WHIP across 6.2 innings. Treinen has one more year left on his contract with the Dodgers, though it remains to be seen whether he'll be ready for the start of spring training in February 2027.

Will Klein

RP

Klein is on the 60-day injured list and won't be able to come back from the injured list before the regular season ends. However, his return to facing hitters is an encouraging sign that he may be activated when eligible Sept. 30 to contribute toward the Dodgers' pursuit of a third consecutive World Series title.

Eric Lauer

SP

Lauer initially landed on the injured list Sept. 2 with elbow inflammation, so his move to the 60-day IL officially rules him out for the rest of the season. His place on the 40-man roster will go to top prospect Josue De Paula, who was selected from Double-A Tulsa in a corresponding move.

Gavin Stone

SP

Stone went two weeks in between rehab appearances as he recovered from a minor biceps issue. He had pitched tremendously in his first four outings prior to Wednesday, yielding just two runs with an 18:1 K:BB in 11.2 frames. If he can rediscover that form, Stone could help the Dodgers down the stretch. The 27-year-old hasn't pitched in the majors since 2024 after undergoing shoulder surgery in October of that year and then experiencing a setback this spring.

Jake Cousins

RP

It's the first appearance for Cousins since he underwent Tommy John surgery last June. He averaged 94.3 mph with his four-seamer in the outing, which is down only slightly from his pre-surgery velocity. Cousins has had difficulty staying healthy in his career, but he boasts a 2.78 ERA and 32.6 percent strikeout rate over parts of four seasons, so he could provide a boost to the Dodgers' bullpen down the stretch after he makes a few more rehab appearances.
