    Dodgers' Tanner Scott: Left off World Series roster

    Scott (lower body) is not on the Dodgers' World Series roster.

    Scott underwent a lower-body abscess procedure earlier this month and has not made an appearance this postseason. The reliever had resumed throwing and was hoping to be added to the roster for the Fall Classic, but the Dodgers have decided against it.

    Dodgers' Will Klein: Makes World Series roster

    Klein is on the Dodgers' World Series roster.

    Klein has not pitched in nearly a month, having been left off the roster for each of the Dodgers' first three postseason series. He'll likely be limited to low-leverage appearances during the World Series.

  • Dodgers' Edgardo Henriquez: Added to roster for Fall Classic

    Henriquez is on the Dodgers' World Series roster.

    Henriquez was on the roster for the wild-card round but not included on the Dodgers' NLDS or NLCS rosters. The hard-throwing right-hander is now back in the bullpen for the Fall Classic to provide manager Dave Roberts with another relief arm.

    Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Left off World Series roster

    Vesia (personal) is not on the Dodgers' World Series roster.

    Vesia is away from the club while tending to a personal family matter. Per Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times, Vesia will not be placed on the family medical emergency list, which means he's ineligible to added to the Dodgers' World Series roster at a later date.

    Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Away from team

    The Dodgers announced Thursday that Vesia is away from the team for personal reasons.

    The Dodgers have yet to finalize their roster for the World Series, and it's unclear whether Vesia's situation will prevent him from pitching in the Fall Classic against the Blue Jays. The 29-year-old southpaw has allowed two earned runs and struck out four batters across 4.2 innings during Los Angeles' postseason run.

  • Brewers' Logan Henderson: Clean bill of health

    The Brewers deemed Henderson (elbow) to be fully healthy at the end of the season, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Henderson's season came to an early end after being diagnosed with a flexor strain in his right elbow in early August, but the team has now confirmed the young right-hander made a full recovery and should have a normal offseason. The 23-year-old turned a few heads by posting a 1.79 ERA and 0.99 WHIP alongside a 33:8 K:BB across 25.1 innings during his five regular-season starts with Milwaukee, and he figures to have a strong chance to make the Brewers' Opening Day rotation in 2026.

  • Sal Frelick RF | MIL

    Brewers' Sal Frelick: Imaging on knee comes back clean

    Frelick is expected to have a normal offseason after imaging on his left knee came back negative, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Frelick initially tweaked his knee in early May and battled through soreness off and on for the rest of the season, though he never went on the injured list because of the knee issue. He's expected to arrive for spring training at 100 percent after getting some extended rest over the offseason. Frelick had his best season at the plate in 2025, slashing .288/.351/.405 with 12 homers and 19 stolen bases.

  • Brewers' William Contreras: Surgery on finger fracture possible

    Contreras will visit a hand specialist next week to determine whether he needs surgery to repair a fractured left middle finger, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Contreras was diagnosed with a fractured finger back in early May but played through the injury for most of the season. It likely contributed to a relatively disappointing offensive season, as Contreras finished with a .260/.355/.399 batting line with 17 home runs. If he does wind up undergoing surgery, Contreras' availability for the beginning of spring training should not be affected.

  • Caleb Durbin 3B | MIL

    Brewers' Caleb Durbin: Scheduled for surgery

    Durbin will undergo arthroscopic elbow surgery Oct. 30, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Durbin's elbow began bothering him toward the end of the season, so he will now go under the knife to address the issue. The 25-year-old infielder is expected to be fully recovered by the time spring training begins in February.

  • Sammy Peralta RP | MIL

    Brewers' Sammy Peralta: Claimed off waivers by Brewers

    The Brewers claimed Peralta off waivers from the Angels on Tuesday.

    Peralta has made 30 relief appearances at the major-league level, collecting a 5.12 ERA, 1.71 WHIP and 37:24 K:BB across 45.2 innings of work. The 27-year-old has some experience in the minors as a starting pitcher, but he'll most likely serve as left-handed relief depth for Milwaukee.
