Dodgers' Jack Dreyer: Won't go on rehab assignment
Rotowire
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Dreyer (shoulder) will not go on a rehab assignment and will be activated from the 15-day injured list when eligible June 1, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Dreyer landed on the 15-day IL in mid-May due to left shoulder discomfort. The extended rest appears to have been enough to warrant a minimum stint on the IL for the left-hander, who is tracking toward being available out of the Dodgers' bullpen for their series opener against the Diamondbacks on Monday. Prior to his injury, Dreyer posted a 2.08 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, three holds and a 24:6 K:BB across 21.2 innings.

Dodgers' Jack Dreyer: Converts fourth save
Rotowire
Dreyer struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Saturday's 7-5 win over the Giants.
Tanner Scott had a 23-pitch appearance Friday and was presumably unavailable for Saturday's game. The Dodgers had to dig deep in this game, with Alex Vesia also not pitching and Kirby Yates being deployed in the seventh inning, leading to Dreyer getting a rare chance to close a game out. He's up to four saves this season and has added 10 holds over 64 appearances. He's also pitched to a 2.80 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 72:22 K:BB through 74 innings, and he's allowed just two runs with an 11:1 K:BB over eight innings in September.

Dodgers' Jack Dreyer: Opening Tuesday's contest
Rotowire
Dreyer will serve as the Dodgers' opening pitcher in Tuesday's game versus the Padres, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Dreyer will draw his fourth opener assignment this season, after he previously allowed a total of four runs over 5.1 innings across his first three times opening a game. The southpaw hasn't been used out of the bullpen since last Wednesday and should be capable of giving the Dodgers anywhere between one and three innings before he exits the contest. Right-hander Matt Sauer is a good bet to serve as a bulk reliever for the Dodgers on Tuesday.

Dodgers' Jack Dreyer: Will be opening pitcher Monday
Rotowire
Dreyer will serve as the opening pitcher in Monday's tilt versus the Diamondbacks, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.
Dreyer has thrown as many as three innings in an appearance this season and went two frames his last time out versus the Angels, so he could offer more length than your typical opener. Landon Knack is slated to eat the bulk of the innings as the Dodgers' primary pitcher in the series opener.

Added to the Dodgers' 40-man roster over the winter after a standout season at Triple-A Oklahoma City, the 26-year-old Dreyer continued to thrive during spring training and earned his spot in the Opening Day bullpen.

Dodgers' Jack Dreyer: Shielded from Rule 5 Draft
Rotowire
The Dodgers added Dreyer to the 40-man roster Tuesday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Dreyer appeared in 37 games with Triple-A Oklahoma in 2024, producing a 2.74 ERA and 1.14 WHIP with 52 strikeouts over 42.2 innings. The left-hander is just one step short of being a major-leaguer and he'll have a chance to prove himself with Los Angeles this spring in an attempt to crack the Opening Day roster.
