Kirby Yates Activated, Blake Snell Placed on Paternity List
Kirby Yates (back) from the 15-day injured list and placed left-hander Blake Snell (personal) on the paternity list. Yates is returning after missing nearly a month with pain in his lower back. He went 4-3 with a 4.31 ERA, a 1.31 WHIP, 44:12 K:BB, 13 holds, and three saves in 31 1/3 innings before hitting the IL on July 29. The 38-year-old right-hander should step back into a setup role now that he's rejoining the Dodgers' bullpen. Snell, meanwhile, will not miss any starts while on paternity leave, as he'll only be away for up to three days. He threw seven innings of two-run ball in a 2-1 loss to the San Diego Padres on Friday. The two-time Cy Young winner has gone 3-2 with a 1.97 ERA, a 1.38 WHIP, and 30:15 K:BB over 32 innings in his first season with the Dodgers. He's scheduled to make his next start on Aug. 29 against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
