Gonsolin joins Glasnow, Sasaki and Snell among 14 Dodgers pitchers on injured list
ST. LOUIS — Tony Gonsolin was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday by the Dodgers because of right elbow discomfort, joining fellow rotation members Tyler Glasnow, Roki Sasaki and Blake Snell among 14 Los Angeles pitchers on the IL. NL West-leading Los Angeles activated relievers Kirby Yates from the 15-day IL and Michael Kopech from the 60-day IL before Saturday's game against St. Louis and designated right-hander Chris Stratton for assignment, one day after he rejoined the team. Gonsolin, a 31-year-old right-hander, made his season debut on April 30 after recovering from Tommy John surgery on Aug. 18, 2023, and was 3-2 with a 5.00 ERA in seven starts. He last pitched Wednesday in a 6-1 loss to the New York Mets , allowing three runs — two earned — three hits and three walks in five innings. Other Dodgers pitchers on the IL are right-handers Luis García, Brudar Graterol, Michael Grove, Edgardo Henriquez, Kyle Hurt, Evan Phillips, River Ryan, Emmet Sheehan, Gavin Stone and Blake Treinen. Kopech, a 29-year-old right-hander, had been sidelined since spring training with right shoulder impingement and had a 15.63 ERA in nine rehab appearances with Triple-A Oklahoma City from May 8 through last Sunday. Yates, a 38-year-old right-hander, had been sidelined since May 17 because of a strained right hamstring. He is 3-2 with a 4.34 ERA in 22 relief appearances, striking out 31 and walking six in 18 2/3 innings. Stratton, 34, signed with the Dodgers on May 25, three days after he was released by Kansas City. He was designated for assignment on June 2, refused an outright assignment to Oklahoma City, then re-signed with the Dodgers a day later. He has made a pair of appearances for Los Angeles, totaling three innings. ___ AP MLB:

Dodgers' Chris Stratton Elects to Leave Organization
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Veteran right-handed pitcher Chris Stratton, who was designated for assignment by the Los Angeles Dodgers earlier this week, has cleared waivers and was sent outright to Triple-A Oklahoma City. However, Stratton has rejected his outright assignment, instead electing to enter free agency.

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - JUNE 01: Chris Stratton #41 of the Los Angeles Dodgers throws a pitch during the eighth inning against the New York Yankees at Dodger Stadium on June 01, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. MoreStratton signed a major league deal with the Dodgers on May 25 as the team was looking for bullpen help amid their rash of injuries. Stratton ended up making two appearances with the reigning World Series champions, allowing two earned runs in three innings of work for a 6.00 ERA. Stratton was then designated for assignment on Monday when the team made a trade and another roster move to shuffle their bullpen.

The 34-year-old began the season with the Kansas City Royals — where he also spent the 2024 season — sporting a 7.94 ERA over 12 appearances. Last year, he had a 5.55 ERA across 57 appearances in Kansas City. Stratton was initially a first-round pick by the San Francisco Giants in 2012. He debuted in 2016 and spent three seasons of his career with San Francisco before being traded to the Los Angeles Angels ahead of the 2019 season. The Angels traded Stratton to the Pittsburgh Pirates midway through the 2019 season. He was then with Pittsburgh until 2022, when he was traded to the St. Louis Cardinals. At the 2023 trade deadline, Stratton was traded again, this time to the Texas Rangers. He played a key role in Texas' bullpen in their 2023 World Series run. More news: Phillies' Bryce Harper Breaks Silence on Kyle Schwarber's Upcoming Free Agency Across his 10-year career, Stratton has made 373 appearances (42 starts), sporting a 4.63 ERA over 623.1 innings pitched. Now, he'll look to continue his career with another team, and shouldn't have much trouble finding a minor league opportunity that could turn into a major league one. Stratton has six pitches in his arsenal, mainly using a four-seam fastball, curveball, changeup and slider while also mixing in a sinker and sweeper. While he's struggled this season, he is in the 90th percentile of average exit velocity and the 81st percentile in hard hit percentage. It shouldn't be long before Stratton joins another team and contributes to their bullpen — he'll just likely hope to get a longer stay at his next stop.

The right-hander wasn't used in a 3-1 loss at Citi Field. Stratton was released by the Kansas City Royals last Thursday after compiling a 7.94 ERA in 12 appearances spanning 17 innings this season. He gave the Dodgers a fresh, available arm after their relief corps was taxed Friday night in a rain-delayed victory over the Mets that lasted 13 innings. Bobby Miller was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City and fellow right-hander J.P. Feyereisen was designated for assignment to clear a spot on the 40-man roster. Miller pitched two innings in relief during Saturday night's 5-2 loss to the Mets after getting recalled from the minors earlier in the day. He allowed one run and three hits with one walk. The 34-year-old Stratton is 41-27 with a 4.63 ERA in 371 games, including 42 starts, over 10 major league seasons with San Francisco (2016-18), the Los Angeles Angels (2019), Pittsburgh (2019-22), St. Louis (2022-23), Texas (2023) and Kansas City (2024-25). He won a World Series title in 2023 with the Rangers. Notes Touted rookie Roki Sasaki (right shoulder impingement) will begin a throwing progression this week, manager Dave Roberts said. ... RHP Michael Kopech (right shoulder impingement) pitched a scoreless inning in his latest rehab outing with Triple-A Oklahoma City.
