Overview
- The Dodgers announced Monday that they recalled right‑hander Emmet Sheehan from Triple‑A Oklahoma City and optioned right‑hander Bobby Miller to clear a roster spot.
- Sheehan dominated in four Triple‑A starts, pitching 18 innings with a 1.50 ERA and producing 24 strikeouts before the recall.
- Miller had spent most of the season dealing with right shoulder soreness and a back issue, completed a seven‑appearance rehab at Triple‑A and made a one‑appearance major‑league relief outing before being sent down.
- The roster move continues Los Angeles' strategy of rapidly shifting pitchers between Triple‑A and the majors as it manages workloads late in the season with an 86‑57 record and first place in the NL West.
- Sheehan is expected to be used in Monday night's Game 1 against the Reds and could serve as short‑term rotation depth or long relief if he sustains his Triple‑A form.
