Unfortunately, there’s some expected news, as Enrique Hernandez is being placed on the IL with a “significant” tear and Alex Freeland is being called up to take his place.

The Dodgers recalled IF Alex Freeland and placed IF/OF Kiké Hernández on the injured list with a left oblique strain.

Timeline remains a little up in the air depending on when Hernández is symptom-free, but the thought is he could miss 6-8 weeks. https://t.co/Ctmq7FzBjo

Worse yet, down on the farm speedster Kendall George seems to have suffered a serious injury due to a bat dog.

The Dodgers are still reviewing Kendall George's imaging results, sources said. The initial belief is that he suffered a patellar injury (as @ByJackHarris said), but the belief is that he avoided any sort of ligament damage. https://t.co/Y4kN5ZXoqw https://t.co/fC7zfTgDZU
