Good morning baseball fans!

The Dodgers signed Joe Thatcher to a minor-league deal:

Over 22.3 innings last season, Thatcher pitched to a 3.18 ERA. He is not a lefty specialist, though, since lefties batted .245 against Thatcher last season.

Thatcher could be a candidate to join the Dodgers' bullpen since he has a notable amount of experience. Over nine seasons, he has pitched to a 3.38 ERA

Miami adds some bullpen help:

Roster Moves:
• RHP Kyle Barraclough recalled from AAA @zephyrsbaseball
• RHP Dustin McGowan designated for assignment

Los Angeles could be without a top starter for a bit longer:

#Dodgers Dave Roberts said Hyun Jin Ryu is dealing with "a little groin strain" and has had to back off his throwing program. Again.

Is Fredi Gonzalez on the hot seat? It is probably safe to assume yes.

Charlie Blackmon is headed to the 15-day DL with a foot injury.
