Heyward (back) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Giants.
Heyward will be sitting for the third straight game after sitting due to a lefty starting Sunday and back tightness Monday. Imaging on the outfielder's back came back negative, but the Dodgers claimed outfielder Taylor Trammell on Tuesday in case Heyward requires a trip to the IL, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports. With the right fielder remaining out, Teoscar Hernandez will start in right field and Enrique Hernandez will draw the start in left field.
