The Dodgers optioned Alfonzo to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.
Alfonzo and Chuckie Robinson will be replaced on the Dodgers' active roster by new acquisitions Hunter Feduccia and Ben Rortvedt. Alfonzo went just 5-for-27 during his time with Los Angeles and is likely to spend the rest of the season as a depth piece at Oklahoma City.

Dodgers' Eliezer Alfonzo: Officially called up Saturday
Rotowire
The Dodgers selected Alfonzo's contract from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday.
Alfonzo has thrived with OKC this season, slashing .313/.392/.422 with one home run, 16 RBI and a 22:17 BB:K over 49 games. He's thus getting his first look in the majors, and he's expected to serve as the backup behind the plate to Dalton Rushing while Will Smith (neck) remains on the IL. Chuckie Robinson, who had been working as the backup catcher, was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Tigers' Eliezer Alfonzo: Sent to minor-league camp
Rotowire
Alfonzo was reassigned to minor-league camp Wednesday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
Alfonzo went 3-for-8 with a double and two RBI in Grapefruit League play. The 25-year-old spent the entire 2024 season with Double-A Erie and could be headed there again this year, unless he gets the call up to Triple-A. Alfonzo is likely nothing more than organizational depth for the Tigers at the moment.
