Dodgers starter Eric Lauer sidelined with left elbow inflammation after rough outing

Blake Treinen returned from the injured list as Eric Lauer missed at least two weeks after a rough start, the Dodgers said.

  • On Wednesday, the Los Angeles Dodgers placed starting pitcher Eric Lauer on the injured list with left elbow inflammation while simultaneously activating relief pitcher Blake Treinen from the injured list.
  • Lauer's performance in Tuesday's 13-8 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals triggered the move; he allowed seven runs in three innings and has posted an 8.41 ERA over his last five appearances since arriving from the Toronto Blue Jays.
  • Treinen returns after being sidelined since June 20 with right elbow inflammation, having completed seven rehab appearances between Low-A Ontario and Triple-A Oklahoma City with a 0.00 ERA.
  • With Lauer sidelined, the Dodgers rotation is now down to four starters—Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Tarik Skubal, Blake Snell, and Tyler Glasnow—while Justin Wrobleski was activated to provide bullpen depth.
  • Relief pitcher Will Klein was moved to the 60-day injured list to clear roster space, ruling him out for the remainder of the regular season despite remaining a postseason option.
