Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Picks up fifth save
Vesia struck out two in a perfect inning to earn the save in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Giants.
Vesia and Tanner Scott were the only relievers the Dodgers used Wednesday, but Vesia's workload was lighter in that appearance. That put him in position to get a save opportunity Thursday, and the southpaw delivered a sharp outing to convert it. Since returning from an oblique injury Sept. 9, Vesia has allowed one run over 4.2 innings, adding two holds and a 7:1 K:BB in that span. He's at a 2.68 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 76:19 K:BB through 57 innings this season. Vesia has converted five saves while adding 23 holds and four blown saves as a fixture in the high-leverage mix throughout the year.

Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Activated from IL
The Dodgers reinstated Vesia (oblique) from the injured list Tuesday.
A right oblique strain has kept Vesia on the shelf since Aug. 21, though he pitched two shutout innings while striking out three batters in two rehab appearances at Triple-A Oklahoma City. Now fully healthy, the 29-year-old southpaw will reclaim a high-leverage role in the Dodgers' bullpen after posting a 2.75 ERA and 0.99 WHIP through 52.1 innings before his injury. Ben Casparius was optioned to Oklahoma City in a corresponding move.

Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Targeting Tuesday return
Vesia (oblique) expects to be activated from the 15-day injured list before Tuesday's game against the Rockies, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
Vesia hasn't appeared in a big-league game since Aug. 21 while on the mend from a right oblique strain, but all has gone well while on a rehab assignment. He should immediately slot back in as a high-leverage arm for the Dodgers upon his return from the shelf.

Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Starts rehab assignment
Vesia (oblique) struck out one in a perfect inning in his first rehab appearance with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday.
Vesia has missed the last two weeks of action with a right oblique strain but didn't seem to show any rust in his first rehab outing. The reliever could make one more rehab appearance before being activated from the 15-day injured list on Sunday, the first day he's eligible.

Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Placed on injured list
The Dodgers placed Vesia on the 15-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to Saturday, with a right oblique strain, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
Vesia hasn't pitched since last Thursday, and it would seem his strained oblique played a part in his lengthy break. The 29-year-old southpaw will remain sidelined through the first week of September, and his move to the IL will open a roster spot for Blake Snell, who returned from the paternity list Tuesday.

Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Blows save, snags win
Vesia (3-2) allowed an inherited runner to score but didn't give up a hit or a walk while striking out one over 1.2 scoreless innings, taking a blown save and earning the win over the Padres on Sunday.
A Jose Iglesias groundout generated the game-tying run, charged to Alexis Diaz, after Vesia entered the game in the eighth inning. The Dodgers retook the lead in their half of the inning, and Vesia remained in the game for a clean ninth to collect the win. He's blown a save in three of his last five appearances, allowing five runs (four earned) with a 4:5 K:BB in that span. Vesia's shaky pitching has likely cost him a larger share of closing duties, though the Dodgers continue to take a committee approach while Tanner Scott (elbow), Kirby Yates (back) and Michael Kopech (knee) work their way back to health. Vesia has collected four saves, four blown saves and 21 holds this season while posting a 2.81 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 67:18 K:BB over 51.1 innings.

Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Takes blown save
Vesia allowed one run on one hit and three walks over two-thirds of an inning, taking a blown save in Tuesday's 7-6 extra-inning loss to the Angels.
Vesia has hit the skids at the worst possible time with both Tanner Scott (elbow) and Kirby Yates (back) on the injured list. Over his last three outings, Vesia has allowed four runs (three earned) on six hits and four walks, taking two blown saves and two losses in that span. Prior to the slump, he had given up just one run over his previous 15 innings. Vesia hasn't converted a save since July 29 in Cincinnati and is ceding some closing duties to Blake Treinen and Ben Casparius, who are also struggling. Overall, Vesia still looks like the Dodgers' best healthy reliever, though he's now at a 2.76 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 66:17 K:BB through 49 innings while adding four saves and 20 holds.

Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Locks down fourth save
Vesia earned the save in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Reds, striking out two in a perfect ninth inning.
Tasked with protecting a one-run lead, Vesia delivered a clean ninth inning, fanning two batters and allowing no baserunners to secure his fourth save of the season, and his first since July 11. The left-hander has been nearly untouchable of late, giving up just one earned run across his last 15 appearances. Vesia now holds a 2.42 ERA, .90 WHIP and 62:13 K:BB through 44.2 innings this season and remains one of the Dodgers' top high-leverage bullpen arms.

Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Picks up 17th hold
Vesia notched a hold against the Giants on Saturday by retiring both batters he faced in the eighth inning.
Vesia entered the contest in a huge spot, inheriting a bases-loaded, one-out situation with the Dodgers holding a 2-0 lead. The lefty was able to keep Los Angeles ahead, allowing a Rafael Devers sacrifice fly before getting Matt Chapman to ground into a fielder's choice. Vesia has been outstanding across the past six weeks, posting a 1.23 ERA, 0.48 WHIP and 18:2 K:BB over 14.2 frames while recording six holds and two saves across 18 appearances. He's been one of Los Angeles' top high-leverage arms throughout the campaign, and his 17 holds have already a established a new career high.

Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Picks up third save
Vesia earned the save in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Padres, striking out three in a perfect ninth inning.
After Tanner Scott faced the middle of San Diego's lineup in the eighth inning, the Dodgers turned to Vesia with a three-run lead in the ninth. The left-hander breezed through the bottom of the Padres lineup, striking out the side to lock down his third save. The 29-year-old Vesia boasts a 2.79 ERA with a 1.07 WHIP and 41:9 K:BB across 29 innings in a high-leverage role this season.

Dodgers' Alex Vesia: Secures second save
Vesia allowed a hit in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Friday's 8-5 win over the Yankees.
Vesia got the save chance after Tanner Scott defused a two-on, two-out situation in the eighth inning. Both pitchers struggled in their last outings Wednesday versus the Guardians, and it's at least intriguing that Vesia was called upon to handle the top of the Yankees' order, which he did successfully after pitching around Trent Grisham's leadoff single. Vesia has allowed four runs in May, all via home runs, over 10.1 innings. He's at two saves, 10 holds, a 3.24 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 35:9 K:BB through 25 innings. With Scott blowing three saves over his last five appearances, Vesia looks to be the early candidate to take over the ninth inning should manager Dave Roberts officially make a change at closer. Even if that happens, it could lead to a committee scenario, especially once Kirby Yates (hamstring) and Michael Kopech (shoulder) are ready to return.
