8:03 pm: Los Angeles officially announced the Ureña agreement and reported the DFA of Robinson chuckie. They optionized Wants little ones To triple-a in an active list movement corresponding.
11:38 am: Dodgers sign the right -hander José Ureñareports Jon Heyman from the New York Post. He should be in Los Angeles this evening to join their staff against the dishes, for whom he launched earlier this year (although only one appearance). This suggests that Aureña, a first -talented customer Sports & Entertainment, has accepted a major league contract. Ureña gets a major league contract, according to Alden González d’Espn.
Ureña, 33, has just written a free agency yesterday. He had been with the Blue Jays since the beginning of May and had reasonably launched well for Toronto, but was unlocked when the Jays needed a fresh arm. He will at least temporarily join an enclosure of Dodger in the grip of injuries which experienced significant turnover among the injuries to injuries Evan Phillips,, Kirby Yates,, Blake trains And Luis Garcíaamong others.
Although Ureña’s time with the Jays led to a solid ERA at 12 1/3 of frames, he coupled this with a ugly report of 5 to 3 k / BB and also served three circuits. Its 9.5% swing rate is significantly south of the league average bar of 11.3% for a lifter, and opponents contacted 88.8% of its land in the area – a little higher than the 85% league average. These red flags and the fact that he was on a minimal contract after having signed in circumstances similar to those seen here with the Dodgers, made Toronto.
Ureña launches strong but has an uneven history in the big leagues. He was a solid launcher leaving with the Marlins at the start of his career, displaying an MPM of 3.90 in 343 2/3 heats from 2017 to 2018. The decreases in his command and his ability to keep the ball in the park tormented it for several years later and led him to start bouncing in the league; From 2019-23, Ureña presented a very similar number of sleeves to this race ’17 -’18 (350 1/3), but did it with a dark MPM of 5.50 while relying for five different clubs.
A passage in 2024 with the Rangers revitalized the career of Ureña to a certain extent. It was a precious swingman in Texas last season, accumulating 109 rounds with an MPM of 3.80 and a walking rate of 8.4% very improved – although in conjunction with a 15.4% withdrawal rate which ranks near the League.
The Dodgers enclosure is in ruins, Phillips recently learning that he will need Tommy John surgery at the end of the season. It is the most notable but barely the only injury. Yates missed more than two weeks with tension with hamstrings. García struck the list of injured during the weekend due to a vintage tension. Treinen has been absent since April due to a strain of the forearm. Michael Kopech And Graterole Brusdar I did not launch at all in 2025 – the first due to a forearm tension and the second due to surgery of the off -season shoulder.
With the Reead Corps in shock, the Dodgers recently brought a new wave of weapons. Lou TrivinoLike Ureña, was signed after being killed by another club (the giants of the division rival, in the case of Trivino). It was excellent in 8 1/3 rounds. Right Ryan Loutos Cardinals were acquired in exchange for money after being appointed for an assignment. Another right, Wants little onesjoined the team yesterday after the Dodgers and the Mariners exchanged minor league weapons; Seattle picked up Lefty Joe Jacques in this agreement. Chris Stratton Signed briefly signed at after his release in Kansas City, but has since been appointed for assignment. Closer former reds Alexis Diaz has also been added to a recent trade, although it is in triple-a Oklahoma City at the moment.
Dodgers will have to open a place of 40 men for Ureña. They are currently in full capacity in this regard, and although they have accumulated a mountain of injuries, they are currently without a clear candidate to go to the 60 -day IL. If Dodgers think that Diaz’s salary will allow him to go through exemptions, they could designate him for assignment and try to put it in Triple-A in this way. Loutos fought in his MLB round only but has been sharp in Triple-A since its acquisition. Right Noah DavisAn in depth pick-up in March, had trouble OKC and in the majors, which could also endanger it.
