Esteury Ruiz

The Dodgers have optioned outfielder Esteury Ruiz to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Fantasy Impact

Ruiz, who stole 67 bases as a rookie for the A's in 2023, has struggled at the plate in his big-league tenure. The 26-year-old has hit .190 with a homer and four stolen bases in 23 plate appearances for the Dodgers this season.

Esteury Ruiz went 1-for-2 with a solo homer in a 6-5 loss to the Brewers on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Ruiz launched a solo shot in the fifth inning, giving him his first home run of the season. The veteran has four hits in 16 at-bats for LA as he looks to carve out a consistent spot in the team's lineup.

The Dodgers are expected to recall Esteury Ruiz.

Fantasy Impact

Ruiz is likely to take the roster spot of Max Muncy who suffered an apparent knee injury in Wednesday's game against the White Sox. He will add more speed off the bench for the Dodgers.

The Dodgers placed Esteury Ruiz on their taxi squad.

Fantasy Impact

Ruiz is with the team with James Outman with Hyeseong Kim and Tommy Edman banged up. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said both appear to be in the clear, so Outman and Ruíz will go back to OKC.

The Dodgers are acquiring Esteury Ruiz from the Athletics.

Fantasy Impact

Ruiz was designated for assignment by the Athletics over the weekend. He stole an AL-leading 67 bases in 2023. He'll add depth in the outfield for the Dodgers.
