Dodgers Place Teoscar Hernandez on IL, Option Hyeseong Kim
The move leaves Los Angeles without one of its top hitters for at least a few weeks while Ryan Ward returns for his second big-league stint.
- On Friday, the Los Angeles Dodgers placed outfielder Teoscar Hernandez on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain, recalling top prospect Ryan Ward from Triple-A Oklahoma City.
- Hernandez sustained a Grade 1 strain while running out a ground ball during Wednesday's win against the Colorado Rockies, with manager Dave Roberts expecting a multi-week absence.
- Alongside the outfield change, the team optioned infielder Hyeseong Kim to the minor leagues and re-signed Santiago Espinal, while transferring Blake Snell to the 60-day injured list to clear a 40-man roster spot.
- Ward, the reigning Pacific Coast League MVP, enters his second major league stint this season and will share playing time with Alex Call in left field.
- The club is managing the absence of Kiké Hernandez, who landed on the injured list with an oblique strain, making these roster changes necessary to address a shortage of right-handed bats.
