Dodgers Designate Ryan Brasier For Assignment
The Los Angeles Dodgers designated right-handed reliever Ryan Brasier for assignment on Thursday, according to sources. The move was made to open up a spot on the 40-man roster for recently-signed reliever Kirby Yates. The Dodgers now will have a few days to try to find a trade partner before he's subject to waivers. There could be a market for the 37-year-old veteran relief man after he posted a 3.54 ERA and 0.96 WHIP with 25 strikeouts and only five walks out of the Dodgers bullpen in 28 innings pitched last season. Even if the Dodgers do not find a trade partner, there's a good chance another team looking for additional bullpen depth will claim him off waivers. Brasier wasn't going to see much high-leverage work in L.A.'s stacked bullpen, but he could with another squad in 2025. He missed valuable time in 2024 with a calf injury but should be healthy for spring training.
