Dodgers bring back Mike Siani, designate Andy Ibáñez for assignment
- On Tuesday, the Los Angeles Dodgers claimed outfielder Mike Siani off waivers from the New York Yankees and designated infielder Andy Ibáñez for assignment.

- Siani now faces a Spring Training battle for outfield minutes with starters Kyle Tucker, Teoscar Hernández, Andy Pages, and versatile depth like Tommy Edman, Hyeseong Kim, and Alex Call.
