Hurt

The 27-year-old had Tommy John surgery last summer and has been working his way back to the big leagues. He has made seven relief appearances on his current rehab assignment, posting a 1.93 ERA, 1.61 WHIP, and 10/5 K/BB in 9 1/3 innings. It’s unclear if the Dodgers will activate Hurt and give him a shot to help the bullpen now that his rehab stint is ending.

Hurt has been out for the entirety of 2025 while recovering from his right elbow injury. It seems more likely that he’ll be an option for Los Angeles in 2026 than one who could help in 2025.

Hurt now won’t be eligible to come off the injured list until the end of May. The right-hander is now off the 40-man roster, and the Dodgers used that room to add Esteury Ruiz in a trade with the Athletics.

Hurt will open the year on the shelf as he continues to rehab from a right elbow injury. The 26-year-old righty should be an option for the Dodgers in a relief role at some point down the road.

The 26-year-old hurler had already been pitching at Triple-A OKC while on a rehab assignment, but he’ll continue to build up there as he continues his recovery from right shoulder inflammation. In order to free up a spot on the club’s 40-man roster, Max Muncy was transferred to the 60-day injured list in a corresponding move on Friday.

The procedural move sidelines Hurt until at least June 16. The 25-year-old righty landed on the injured list earlier this week with right shoulder inflammation. It certainly sounds like he’s going to be out for a while.

Hurt heads to the injured list after posting a solid 1.35 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 3/1 K/BB ratio across 6 2/3 innings (three appearances, one start) this season for Los Angeles. No word yet on how long he’ll wind up being sidelined, but shoulder issues can be extremely complicated matters. There should be an update on his status in the coming days.

Hurt will make his first career start on Tuesday night against the Nationals with southpaw Ryan Yarbrough expected to follow in a bulk relief role. The 25-year-old righty, who has excelled in three career relief appearances for the Dodgers, will likely work a couple frames in this one. Given his strikeout upside, there’s definitely some streaming appeal here for fantasy managers in deeper mixed leagues.

The 25-year-old hurler made two appearances during his few days with the big league club, registering a 1.93 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and a 3/1 K/BB ratio over 4 2/3 innings. The Dodgers promoted Nabil Crismatt in a corresponding move on Sunday, adding a fresh arm to their bullpen. It shouldn’t take long for Hurt to earn another opportunity in the Dodgers’ bullpen.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters afterwards that they still view Hurt as a starter long-term, but there’s a very good possibility he’ll be in the bullpen for the club’s season-opening Seoul Series against the Padres. The 25-year-old righty has struck out nine batters over six scoreless frames this spring between the Cactus League and Korea. He’s a savvy addition for fantasy managers with daily lineup moves to start the year as he could wind up tossing a couple frames against San Diego and offers some significant strikeout potential.
