The veteran reliever is currently on the Injured List with a shoulder injury. But the Dodgers want him back in 2023 at an $8 million salary.
PHILADELPHIA – Blake Treinen hasn’t picked up a baseball in weeks. But the Dodgers have picked up his contract option for 2023.
The Dodgers made the move Sunday even as Treinen is sidelined by an ill-defined shoulder injury. The club option in the two-year, $16 million deal Treinen signed before last season will pay the veteran reliever $8 million next season. The Dodgers and Treinen have also agreed to a conditional option that could bring him back for the 2024 season depending on his availability over the next two seasons.
Treinen has been the Dodgers’ best and most valuable reliever since joining the team as a free agent in 2020. Over the past two seasons, Treinen made 99 appearances – often taking on the heart of the opposing team’s lineup – with a 2.48 ERA, a 1.04 WHIP and 107 strikeouts in 98 innings. He made just three appearances before going on the Injured List with a sore shoulder this season, however, and has not pitched since April 14. Treinen is currently resting the shoulder and is not expected back until after the All-Star break.
The Dodgers end their current road trip with four games in Arizona next week. Treinen is expected to join them there and have his status re-evaluated.
