Availability
The Dodgers transferred Edwin Diaz to the 60-day injured list.
Fantasy Impact
The move opens a spot on the Dodgers 40-man roster. Diaz is expected to miss the next few months after undergoing surgery.
Dodgers closer Edwin Díaz is slated to undergo surgery to remove loose bodies in his right elbow and is expected to miss close to three months.
Fantasy Impact
It is a tough blow for Diaz and the Dodgers. It is also another elite closer down with an injury. Tanner Scott and Alex Vesia should see more save opportunities.
The Dodgers placed Edwin Diaz on the 15-day injured list with right elbow loose bodies.
Fantasy Impact
There is no clear timetable for Diaz to return. He struggled in his latest relief appearance after not pitching in a week.
Edwin Diaz allowed three runs on four hits while striking out two and was charged with a blown save, but got the win in Friday's win over the Rangers.
Fantasy Impact
Diaz entered the game in the ninth with a three-run lead. He gave up two hard hits in his one inning, including a two-run shot to Evan Carter. He may not get the next opportunity after throwing 23 pitches in the blown save.
Edwin Diaz struck out three batters while allowing one hit and one walk over a scoreless frame to earn the save in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Blue Jays.
Fantasy Impact
After Tuesday's win over the Blue Jays, Diaz now has a 1.80 ERA and 1.00 WHIP with four saves through five appearances. If you have to find anything to be critical of, his walk rate is on the higher side in the early going. He's a career 8% walk rate pitcher, and this year that number is up to 12.5% so far.
