After a tough loss to the Texas Rangers that saw the Los Angeles Dodgers give up two runs in the bottom of the 9th to lose 4-3, the last thing they need is to lose another bullpen arm to the injury list.
Well, unfortunately, they knew before the game started that they would be without one of their top bullpen pitchers in Blake Treinen.
According to Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic, Treinen will be going on the IL with forearm tightness. He has not pitched since April 13th and now will miss some extended time.
