Dodgers Add Kopech and Hyeseong Kim as Rosters Expand

The additions bolster depth for a bullpen taxed by injuries ahead of a six-game trip.

Overview

  • Right-hander Michael Kopech was activated from the injured list after logging seven scoreless innings across eight appearances this season.
  • Hyeseong Kim returned from left shoulder bursitis following a strong debut stretch that included a .304 average with two home runs and 12 steals in 58 games.
  • Kopech dealt with elbow and shoulder soreness in spring training and later underwent surgery to repair a right knee meniscus tear.
  • The moves coincide with MLB roster expansion to 28 players for September and fill the two added spots.
  • Los Angeles also signed left-hander Andrew Heaney to a minor-league deal following his release by Pittsburgh, making him postseason-eligible if added to the roster.
