Dodgers' Edgardo Henriquez: Added to roster for Fall Classic
Rotowire
Henriquez is on the Dodgers' World Series roster.
Henriquez was on the roster for the wild-card round but not included on the Dodgers' NLDS or NLCS rosters. The hard-throwing right-hander is now back in the bullpen for the Fall Classic to provide manager Dave Roberts with another relief arm.
Henriquez struck out three in a perfect inning to earn the save in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Mariners.
The flamethrowing right-hander kept things tidy with 12 pitches (nine strikes) to retire the side. The Dodgers' bullpen was a bit short for this game, with regular closer Tanner Scott not available after pitching the last two days, and Alex Vesia had already entered the game for the eighth inning. Henriquez has a save, five holds and two blown saves over 22 appearances this season and has maintained a 2.37 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 18:5 K:BB across 19 innings.
Dodgers' Edgardo Henriquez: Exceeds 103 mph on radar gun
Rotowire
Henriquez tied a Dodgers franchise record for the pitch-tracking era by throwing a 103.3 mph fastball against the Padres on Saturday. He tossed 1.1 scoreless innings in the victory, allowing one hit and issuing one walk while striking out two batters.
The right-hander has always been known as a flamethrower, but he reached a new level against San Diego. The impressive velocity is not an isolated incident though, as Henriquez is averaging 101.3 mph on his fastball in the majors this year. Somewhat surprisingly, that's led to a modest four punchouts over six innings, but he's been very effective in that small sample, as he's yet to give up a run while surrendering just three hits and one walk. Los Angeles will probably need to see more to move Henriquez into a high-leverage role however, as he's posted a far less impressive 6.85 ERA and 1.90 WHIP over 23.2 frames with Triple-A Oklahoma City this season.

Dodgers' Edgardo Henriquez: Activated, heads to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Dodgers reinstated Henriquez (foot) from the 60-day injured list Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Oklahoma City.
Henriquez had been stuck on the IL all season while recovering from a metatarsal injury to his left foot, but he was cleared to begin a minor-league assignment May 29 and appears to have emerged from his 30-day rehab period in sound health. The Dodgers don't have room for the 23-year-old righty in the big-league bullpen, so he'll stick around at Oklahoma City, where he had made all 12 of his rehab appearances while logging a 6.75 ERA, 1.67 WHIP and 16:6 K:BB in 12 innings.

Dodgers' Edgardo Henriquez: Ramping up in rehab stint
Rotowire
Henriquez (foot) pitched on back-to-back days Wednesday and Thursday for the first time during his current minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City, per MLB.com.
Henriquez was excellent in the back-to-back appearances, striking out three batters and allowing just one hit over two scoreless innings. The right-hander tacked on another scoreless frame Saturday, and he's allowed just one run over his past five outings spanning six innings with OKC. Henriquez appears just about ready to be activated from the 60-day IL, which could lead to him contributing to the big-league bullpen in the near future.
Henriquez (foot) kicked off a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday, independent writer Howard Cole reports.
Henriquez looked a bit rusty Thursday in his first rehab outing, allowing one run on one hit and two walks while striking out one batter over two-thirds of an inning. The right-handed reliever remains on the 60-day IL after suffering a left foot injury early this spring. Henriquez got his first taste of major-league action last year, posting a 2.70 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 5:2 K:BB over 3.1 innings during the regular season before allowing four runs over five frames across three playoff appearances.

Dodgers' Edgardo Henriquez: Moved to 60-day IL
Rotowire
The Dodgers transferred Henriquez (foot) to the 60-day injured list Friday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
The move makes room on the Dodgers' roster for Eddie Rosario, who is with the team in Texas while Shohei Ohtani (paternity) is back in Los Angeles. Henriquez is working through a metatarsal injury in his left foot, which caused him to be placed on the 15-day IL to begin the season. His move to the 60-day IL means he won't be eligible to be activated until mid-May.

Dodgers' Edgardo Henriquez: Out for Opening Day
Rotowire
Manager Dave Roberts said Tuesday that Henriquez won't be ready for the start of the season due to a metatarsal injury in his left foot, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Henriquez was seen in the Dodgers' clubhouse Tuesday with a walking boot on. Roberts didn't offer any additional information regarding the severity of Henriquez's injury, though it's apparently serious enough to warrant ruling him out for Opening Day already. The 22-year-old right-hander allowed one earned run in 3.1 regular-season innings with the Dodgers last year, and he had been a candidate to begin 2025 in Los Angeles' bullpen amid all the injuries to the team's pitching staff.
