The Dodgers selected Trivino's contract from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday.
The right-hander will join the MLB roster just a week after inking a minor-league deal with the Dodgers since Kirby Yates (hamstring) is headed to the injured list. Trivino posted a 5.84 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 11:5 K:BB over 12.1 innings with San Francisco before being cut loose in early May and latching on with Los Angeles.

Dodgers' Kirby Yates: Moves to injured list
Rotowire
Yates (hamstring) was placed on the 15-day injured list Sunday.
Manager Dave Roberts indicated after Saturday's loss to the Angels that he expected Yates to require a stint on the injured list, so it's not a surprise that he's been moved to the shelf. The right-hander is dealing with a Grade 1 strain of his right hamstring and will be eligible to be reinstated June 2, though there's no guarantee he'll be ready to be activated at that time.

Dodgers' Max Muncy: Resting Sunday
Rotowire
Muncy isn't part of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.
After making four straight starts at third base, Muncy will get a breather for Sunday's series finale against the Angels. In his place, Enrique Hernandez will bat seventh and play third base.

Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Activated and in lineup
Rotowire
Edman (ankle) has been activated from the 10-day injured list and will bat sixth and play center field Sunday against the Angels, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.
Edman landed on the injured list April 30 after tweaking his right ankle but recovered slower than anticipated. He's finally healthy enough to rejoin the active roster and immediately joins the starting nine. Edman slashed .252/.295/.523 with eight home runs in 122 plate appearances before the injury. The Dodgers designated Chris Taylor for assignment in a corresponding move.

Dodgers' Chris Taylor: Being DFA'd
Rotowire
The Dodgers are expected to designate Taylor for assignment Sunday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Taylor has been in the starting lineup just six times this season and is slashing .200/.200/.257 with a 37.1 percent strikeout rate in 35 plate appearances, so it's not a major surprise to see him dropped from the 40-man roster. The veteran utility man's remaining salary -- about $9 million for 2025 plus a $4 million buyout on his 2026 option -- will likely prevent him from drawing much interest on waivers. The move would open up a spot for Tommy Edman (ankle), who's nearing a return from the 10-day injured list.

Dodgers' Kirby Yates: IL stint likely
Rotowire
Manager Dave Roberts announced after Saturday's loss to the Angels that Yates (hamstring) will undergo an MRI on Sunday, and the skipper indicated he expects the right-hander to go on the injured list, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
The preliminary diagnosis is that Yates suffered a Grade 1 strain of his right hamstring, but he's still expected to require a stint on the IL. Yates surrendered three earned runs over one-third of an inning during Saturday's contest, but prior to that he had a 2.95 ERA with a save and eight holds while working as a setup man this year. Assuming Yates is out for at least the next couple weeks, Alex Vesia should serve as the primary setup option to closer Tanner Scott.
Dodgers' Freddie Freeman: Four hits in high-scoring loss
Rotowire
Freeman went 4-for-5 with two runs scored in Saturday's 11-9 loss to the Angels.
Freeman has a pair of four-hit efforts over his last six games. He's batting .441 (26-for-59) over 15 contests in May, adding eight extra-base hits and 17 RBI. The first baseman's .375 batting average ranks second to only Aaron Judge (.402) through Saturday's action. Freeman has added a fantastic 1.115 OPS, nine home runs, 34 RBI, 26 runs scored and no stolen bases through 35 games as he continues to receive treatment on his surgically repaired right ankle. While that ongoing recovery will prevent him from making much of an impact with speed, he's more than made up for it with his elite and dependable bat.

Dodgers' Enrique Hernandez: Gets aboard five times in loss
Rotowire
Hernandez went 2-for-2 with a solo home run, three walks and three total runs scored in Saturday's 11-9 loss to the Angels.
Hernandez has three multi-hit efforts over his last nine games, going 10-for-27 (.370) with two homers in that span. The utility player had drawn just seven walks over 101 plate appearances prior to Saturday, with his three-walk performance in this contest helping to lift his on-base percentage from .270 to .305. He's added seven homers, 16 RBI, 16 runs scored, two doubles and no stolen bases over 36 contests this season.

Dodgers' Andy Pages: Homers again Saturday
Rotowire
Pages went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 11-9 loss to the Angels.
Pages is sizzling at the plate lately, and that's included a recent burst of power. He's homered three times over his last four games, and he's batting .281 (18-for-64) over 15 contests in May. Overall, the outfielder is enjoying a breakout in his second major-league season, batting .288 with an .847 OPS, nine homers, 27 RBI, 23 runs scored and five stolen bases over 43 games. Pages has filled in for Teoscar Hernandez (groin) in right field lately, but given his recent strong play, manager Dave Roberts will likely find a spot for Pages on a near-everyday basis even once Hernandez returns from the injured list.

Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw: Shows rust in season debut
Rotowire
Kershaw allowed five runs on five hits and three walks while striking out two over four innings in a no-decision versus the Angels on Saturday.
Kershaw struggled in his major-league season debut after a largely successful five-start rehab stint while recovering from left knee and left toe surgeries. The Angels got three of their runs on three hits and two walks in the first inning, marking a rough opening frame for the southpaw. Kershaw ended with 83 pitches (48 strikes) in the contest. Assuming he feels fine coming out of Saturday, he is tentatively projected for a road start versus the Mets next weekend. Even if he has to ease his way back to full fitness, Kershaw's presence is a welcome sight for a Dodgers rotation that has been hammered by injuries early in 2025.

Dodgers' Kirby Yates: Dealing with hamstring tightness
Rotowire
Yates left Saturday's game against the Angels due to right hamstring tightness, Kirsten Watson of Spectrum SportsNet LA reports.
Yates struggled in his outing Saturday before exiting with the training staff. A stint on the injured list is still possible, though it is positive that the injury is not related to his arm. Yates' loss would be significant as the Dodgers are already without other high-leverage relievers such as Blake Treinen (forearm), Evan Phillips (elbow) and Michael Kopech (shoulder).

Dodgers' Kirby Yates: Exits with trainer
Rotowire
Yates exited Saturday's game against the Angels with the training due to an apparent injury, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
Yates faced five batters but recorded only one out and allowed two earned runs before exiting the contest. The nature of the issue is unclear, but there should be additional updates Saturday night or Sunday morning.
Hernandez (groin) went 0-for-1 with two walks and played four innings in right field to begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Rancho Cucamonga on Saturday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
The Dodgers announced that Hernandez would require a rehab assignment before being activated Friday, and he returned to game action one day later. Hernandez could remain in the lineup with Rancho Cucamonga on Sunday, when he'll likely serve as the designated hitter.

Dodgers' Blake Treinen: Plays catch Friday
Rotowire
Treinen (forearm) began playing catch Friday, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.
This marked Treinen's first activity since hitting the injured list April 19. He isn't eligible to be activated until June 18, and he still has to go through a lot of rehab work before it will be clear if returning around the 60-day minimum will be a reasonable expectation.

Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani: Completes another bullpen session
Rotowire
Ohtani (elbow) threw an up-down bullpen session Saturday that totaled 50 pitches, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
Ohtani split his work evenly between two simulated innings, with this session marking the most pitches he's thrown as he continues to work his way back from Tommy John surgery. The right-hander hasn't yet progressed to throwing breaking pitches, but he could begin to face hitters soon. Offensively, the two-way star continues to provide one of the most productive bats in the sport with a .305/.404/.667 slash line, 16 homers and 10 steals through 44 games.

Dodgers' Blake Snell: Moved to 60-day IL
Rotowire
The Dodgers transferred Snell (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Saturday.
Snell's move to the 60-day IL makes him ineligible to return until June 5, though he just began playing catch Wednesday and isn't expected to return for another several weeks anyway. While he continues working his way back, the Dodgers will give his spot on the 40-man roster to Clayton Kershaw (toe/knee), who was activated to start Saturday's game against the Angels.

Dodgers' Ryan Loutos: Back in minors
Rotowire
The Dodgers optioned Loutos to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday.
Loutos gave up two runs in one inning during Friday's loss and will now head back to the minors after one appearance to make room for Clayton Kershaw (toe/knee), who was activated from the IL to start Saturday's game.

Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw: Activated for season debut
Rotowire
The Dodgers reinstated Kershaw (toe/knee) from the 60-day injured list ahead of his start against the Angels on Saturday.
Kershaw will be pitching on a big-league mound for the first time since August after undergoing surgeries on his left toe and left knee. The future Hall of Famer made five rehab starts across three minor-league levels, finishing his assignment with a 2.57 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 16:5 K:BB across 21 innings. His first MLB test of 2025 will come against an Angels lineup that ranks near the bottom of the league with a .664 OPS. In order to make room for Kershaw on the active roster, the Dodgers optioned Ryan Loutos to Triple-A and transferred Blake Snell (shoulder) to the 60-day IL.
