The Los Angeles Dodgers recalled outfielder James Outman Triple-A Oklahoma City and optioned rookie left-hander Justin Wrobleski to the Triple-A affiliate on Sunday.
The Dodgers (97-64), who were scheduled to complete their regular-season schedule on Sunday at the Colorado Rockies, already have clinched the National League’s best record as well as the West Division title.
Outman, 27, returns for his fourth stint with the team this season. He is hitting .148 (20-for-135) with four home runs and 11 RBIs in 52 games with Los Angeles. Outman is batting .279 with 17 homers and 46 RBIs in 69 games with Oklahoma City.
He is a career .231 hitter with 28 homers and 84 RBIs in 207 games since 2022. The Dodgers selected him in the seventh round of the 2018 MLB Draft out of Sacramento State.
Wrobleski, 24, earned the save in the Dodgers’ 13-2 victory over the Rockies on Saturday, throwing four shutout innings with four strikeouts while allowing two hits and two walks.
Since making his major league debut on July 7, Wrobleski is 1-12 with one save, a 5.70 ERA, 16 walks and 26 strikeouts in 36 1/3 innings over eight games (six starts).
He was a combined 6-4 with a 3.76 ERA, 31 walks and 104 strikeouts in 95 2/3 innings over 20 games (18 starts) for the Dodgers’ Double-A and Triple-A affiliates.
The Dodgers selected him in the 11th round of the 2021 draft out of Oklahoma State.
