The Los Angeles Dodgers recalled Joe Kelly and placed Walker Buehler on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Wednesday.
Although Kelly is back on the active roster after being sidelined by shoulder inflammation, he is beginning to serve a five-game suspension. It originally was eight games after MLB decided Kelly intentionally threw at Houston Astros teammates Alex Bregman and Carlos Correa.
Kelly appealed the suspension, which reduced it to five games. He’s not eligible to appear in a game for the Dodgers until Wednesday. Although Kelly’s ban was reduced, he has remained critical of the league and their findings, particularly in the wake of other suspensions.
