The Los Angeles Dodgers finalized their 26-man postseason roster for the 2025 World Series, which does not include Alex Vesia.
The Dodgers announced on Thursday that Vesia was away from the team in order to be alongside his wife, Kayla, due to “a deeply personal family matter.”
Comments from manager Dave Roberts shortly after the announcement indicated the Dodgers were not certain if Vesia would be available at any point for the World Series. His inclusion would be possible if Vesia was placed on the Family Medical Emergency List.
That procedural process requires a player to miss a minimum of three days and up to seven.
