BRAEKING NEWS: Who Will Dodgers Add When Rosters Expand Sunday?
As MLB rosters expand on September 1, 2024, the Los Angeles Dodgers are expected to add two players: one pitcher and one position player. This roster expansion allows teams to carry 28 players instead of the usual 26, which can provide valuable depth during the final stretch of the regular season.
For the position player spot, **Andy Pages** is a likely candidate. Pages has already had significant time in the majors this season, showing potential with his versatility in the outfield. Although he was sent back to the minors after Max Muncy returned from injury, his strong performance in Triple-A (.356/.421/.663) suggests he’s ready for another stint with the Dodgers, especially with the outfield depth still being a concern.
On the pitching side, **Justin Wrobleski** is another name to watch. The 24-year-old left-handed pitcher has made several starts for the Dodgers this season, although his performances have been inconsistent. Given the injuries plaguing the Dodgers’ rotation, including recent setbacks to Clayton Kershaw and Tyler Glasnow, Wrobleski could provide some much-needed reinforcement on the mound.
Additionally, other names like **Emmet Sheehan** and **Michael Busch** are also in the mix. Sheehan had an up-and-down season in the majors but showed potential, particularly in his ability to limit hits. Busch, who has been impressive in Triple-A, could fill in for J.D. Martinez, who is expected to return from the injured list soon.
These additions will give the Dodgers more flexibility as they push towards the playoffs, with the ability to rest key players and cover for ongoing injuries
The Dodgers are in need of pitching help amid injuries to several of their starters. River Ryan was placed on the injured reserve to undergo Tommy John surgery earlier this month, and Tyler Glasnow is once again on the IL.
Clayton Kershaw sustained a bone spur in his toe that caused him to exit Friday’s start early, and Yoshinobu Yamamoto is still in the process of rehab starts. Bringing up Wrobleski could add another starter the Dodgers need right now.
