Logue

It’s a one-year contract for Logue that will pay him $1.1 million. Jeff Passan of ESPN reports that Logue did explore a return to MLB, but the 29-year-old southpaw will remain overseas for at least one more season. He pitched well for the Bears in 2025 with a 2.81 ERA over 176 innings with a K/BB ratio of 156/39.

Logue will take his talents overseas to Korea after being non-tendered last month by the Dodgers. The 28-year-old southpaw made just two appearances last year for the Dodgers and holds a bloated 7.20 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 56/22 K/BB ratio across 70 innings (19 appearances, 10 starts) in the big leagues since 2022.

Logue belongs on a minor league contract, but Honeywell seemed like a guy who might fit into the Dodgers pen next year after a nice finish with the team last season (2.62 ERA in 34 1/3 innings). Perhaps he’ll stay on a non-roster deal, but he should draw some interest.

Logue is sent down to make room for Ben Casparius, with Casparius heading up to give the Dodgers a bulk arm for their bullpen game against Colorado on Friday.

The Dodgers wanted someone who could throw multiple innings tonight after their ugly game Tuesday, and the 28-year-old Logue can do that. While he has been a multi-inning reliever of late, he’s started much of the year, and he hasn’t pitched since throwing three innings six days ago.

Logue elected free agency last week after he was waived by the Braves. Logue was a ninth round pick by the Blue Jays in the 2017 MLB Draft and one of the prospects Toronto sent to Oakland in the trade for Matt Chapman. He wasn’t successful as a starter with the Athletics in 2022 and last appeared in the majors as a reliever with the Tigers last year. Logue isn’t eligible for the playoff roster, but could make an appearance with Los Angeles in the regular season if the Dodgers clinch and need a fresh arm to eat some innings.

Logue appears poised to reject the outright assignment and head to free agency after going unclaimed on waivers following his removal from the Braves’ 40-man roster. The 28-year-old lefty was up briefly last month with Atlanta, but didn’t end up making an appearance.

Logue is off the 40-man roster, and it clears room for Atlanta to add John Brebbia to the group. Logue will hit the waiver wire, and a team looking for help from a southpaw bullpen arm may put in a claim.

Logue, 28, was sent down after Monday’s game. The southpaw was only with the team for four days in this stint, and he’s likely to be an up-and-down option for the remainder of the 2024 campaign.

Logue, 28, will add a fresh arm to the Braves’ bullpen in advance of their series against the Rockies at Coors Field. He has registered a 2.80 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and a 78/22 K/BB ratio across 86 2/3 innings over 21 appearances in the minor leagues this season. Parker Dunshee was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett in a corresponding move on Friday.
