Dodgers Sign Reliever Kevin Quackenbush to Minor League Pact

The Dodgers have signed reliever Kevin Quackenbush to a minor league contract, adding a potentially useful bullpen arm for next season if he can bounce back successfully after a dreadful last couple seasons in the majors.

Quackenbush is a righty who broke into the bigs back in 2014 for the San Diego Padres and posted an impressive rookie season.

It was actually the best year of his career thus far. He appeared in 56 games and threw 54.1 innings while posting a 2.48 ERA, a 1.10 WHIP, and 56 strikeouts.

He increased his games and innings each of his next two seasons with the Padres, but his statistics weren’t as strong as his rookie performance.
