Areinanmo came over in a swap with the Brewers at the trade deadline and projects as a versatile utility infielder once he reaches the big leagues.

The Dodgers will take a wait-and-see approach on Ohtani’s availability as a DH. He was originally slated to hit Wednesday — a change from some of his recent starts on the mound — but if there’s any hand soreness at all, he’ll probably be restricted from double duty.

Alex Freeland is coming back up to join the Dodgers. Hernández made it through just 1 1/2 games after missing the first two months following elbow surgery, but that’s fine... he’s really just here for October.

Pages took Kyle Freeland deep for a solo homer in the third inning, then doubled to plate two more runs in the fourth before stealing third and scoring on a sacrifice fly. He added a double and a run scored in the sixth for his third extra-base hit. A single in the seventh would make it a four-hit game for the 25-year-old outfielder. Pages is slashing an excellent .299/.348/.534 with 12 homers, 33 runs scored, 49 RBI, and seven steals across 224 plate appearances.

Betts got the scoring started for the Dodgers on Tuesday, taking Kyle Freeland deep for a two-run blast in the first inning. He added a single in the third, then later extended the lead with a three-run blast in the sixth off Zach Agnos to give him five RBI. Betts had just one hit in his previous four games before Tuesday’s offensive breakthrough. The 33-year-old shortstop is slashing .190/.250/.429 with six homers, 13 runs scored, and 15 RBI across 92 plate appearances.

Marsh said he hyperextended the finger, but that “we’re good.” Edmundo Sosa will probably start if Marsh can’t go on Wednesday.

Goodman had the Rockies’ only run through eight innings, a solo blast off Eric Lauer in the second inning. Goodman was replaced later in the game as the Dodgers ran up the score. The home run was Goodman’s 12th of the season while hitting .242/.301/.474 with 31 runs scored and 20 RBI across 206 plate appearances.

Lauer, making his first start with the Dodgers, tossed a clean first inning before giving up a solo homer to Hunter Goodman in the second. He went on to scatter three more hits and one walk over four more scoreless innings, going a season-high six frames in his Dodgers debut while collecting four strikeouts. He’ll make for a risky deep-league streamer with win potential when he takes on the Diamondbacks in Arizona next Tuesday.

Arenado said he didn’t feel a pull in the area, and there are no plans for imaging. If he can’t go Wednesday, then Jose Fernandez becomes more likely to start against the Giants.

It’s Rosario’s second two-homer game of 2026. He had just two prior to this season, one coming in 2018 with the Mets and another in 2021 with Cleveland. Rosario has had to settle for very cheap contracts as a free agent in recent seasons, but he’s proven to be useful as a starter against lefties, and he’s hitting .279/.316/.547 with 20 RBI in just 95 plate appearances this season. Jazz Chisholm Jr., Wilyer Abreu, Hunter Goodman, Alex Bregman and Fernando Tatis Jr. are a few of the players with at least twice as many plate appearances as Rosario and no more than 20 RBI.

The Yankees gave Schlittler nine runs to work with in the first three innings of what ended up being a 15-1 victory. Schlittler responded accordingly and walked no one while recording his 18 outs on just 77 pitches. He’s 7-2 with a 1.50 ERA, and he’s due to face the Guardians next.
