The Los Angeles Dodgers have made their first cuts of spring training. They’ve sent nine players down to minor league camp, ending their run with the major league squad for now.
Here are the nine players that were sent down: Dylan Covey, Landon Knack, Robbie Erlin, Nick Nastrini, Bryan Hudson, Jordan Yamamoto, Nick Robertson, James Jones and Yusniel Diaz. The first eight are pitchers and Diaz is an outfielder.
This is their first round of cuts this spring. They didn’t see any of these players making an immediate impact on this team, so they’ll continue to work in the minor leagues, where they’ll start the 2023 season.
