Dodgers Notes: Mookie Swaps with Harper, Alex Reyes Shut Down for 2023, Roberts Struggling with Bullpen & More
It certainly has been a rough couple of days in the land of the Dodgers as they ended off the week with a 4-1 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday and dropped yet another series to close off their road trip. The bright side is that they will get a day off to regroup and will be back at home on Tuesday to face the Chicago White Sox.
On a brighter note, there have been some promotions within the Dodgers’ farm system as both Landon Knack and Emmet Sheehan have been bumped up to Triple-A as they have both been impressive on the mound thus far into the year. We also wish Alex Reyes the best following his second shoulder surgery! For all of the latest team news, continue scrolling!

One thing that was cool to see from the Phillies series was two former MVPs swapping jerseys right off their backs with Mookie Betts (2018 AL) and Bryce Harper (2015, 2021 NL) showing each other respect in Philly.
Game recognizes game.

Dodgers entered today with the 8th worst bullpen in MLB.
This time last year they had the 3rd best bullpen in MLB.
Should come as no surprise that one of the worst pens in the sport isn't getting the job done in a bullpen game.— Doug McKain (@DMAC_LA) June 11, 2023
