RHP Edwin Diaz is joining @OKC_comets to start a rehab assignment on Sunday

Shohei Ohtani was a late arrival pregame. #Dodgers Dave Roberts said he expects Ohtani to hit in the cage today (hasn't done that in a couple days). Will be a "conversation" Sunday to see how he feels after that work

The Dodgers have activated RHP Bobby Miller from the injured list and optioned RHP Kyle Hurt. In order to make room on the 40-man roster, the Dodgers designated OF Alek Thomas for assignment.

Speaking of Sunday: Justin Wrobleski will take the bulk of the innings tomorrow (though he might not start). Bobby Miller who will be active (Kyle Hurt will be sent down) is good for 50 pitches as well.

Edwin Díaz still set to start a rehab assignment Sunday. #Dodgers https://t.co/KhFKpjKGSA
