Dodgers Place **** Hernandez on IL, Recall James Outman Ahead of Brewers Series originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
The Los Angeles Dodgers, ahead of their series against the Milwaukee Brewers and following a three-game sweep at the hands of the Houston Astros, made a slew of roster moves.
On Twitter/X, the Dodgers announced that they have recalled outfielder James Outman from Triple-A, selected the contract of Julian Fernandez, optioned Justin Wrobleski, placed **** Hernandez on the injured list and designated CJ Alexander for assignment.
It's a bunch of roster moves being made at once, with Hernandez's injured list placement and Outman's call-up being the most notable moves from this announcement.
Hernandez played in two of the Dodgers' games against the Astros, going hitless in seven at-bats between the two contests. On the year, he is hitting .195 with eight home runs, and 5.1 innings pitched with a 15.19 ERA.
Outman, meanwhile, has been bouncing between Triple-A and the Major Leagues for the Dodgers this season. He's making his return to the Majors after another stint in the minors and will look to carve out a more solid role on the roster.

So far, through 24 at-bats in the Majors this season, Outman has a .125 batting average and a .597 OPS. He has two home runs out of his three hits but hasn't managed to stop getting out, as over half his at-bats have resulted in strikeouts this season.
Meanwhile, Fernandez is making his return to MLB for the first time since 2021. Wrobleski pitched in 40 innings for the Dodgers, with a 4.50 ERA. He heads back down to the minors two days after allowing four earned runs against the Astros in 4.2 innings.
Alexander didn't make any appearances for the Dodgers in the Majors, and in Triple-A, he hit .142 with a .393 OPS in his two games for the Dodgers.
The Dodgers' roster moves come amid the team's losing skid, as they travel to Milwaukee to face the Brewers and look to rebound from a rough series against a bitter rival.
