COREY KNEBEL NEWS

Nails down save Friday Knebel struck out the side in a perfect ninth inning Friday, picking up a save against the Nationals.

Impact Knebel came into a 1-0 ballgame and shut down the Nationals with ease. He needed just 10 pitches to strike out the side and finish the game. The Dodgers gave the 29-year-old the save chance after Kenley Jansen blew an opportunity Wednesday. Knebel has allowed just one walk through 3.1 shutout innings.

Notches first save Knebel picked up his first save of the season, pitching a perfect ninth inning while striking out one in Sunday's win over the Rockies.

Impact Sunday was a great showing for Knebel. He got the call to close after Kenley Jansen picked up the five-out save Saturday. Knebel is not a lock for consistent save opportunities in a crowded bullpen, but he showed today that he can be a solid backup in high-leverage situations. Knebel is familiar with the role after having 57 saves with the Brewers. The 29-year-old could see an increase in save opportunities if Jansen struggles like he did at the end of 2020.

Dealing with minor bruise Knebel is dealing with what manager Dave Roberts is calling a "lovehandle contusion," but he's expected to pitch in the coming days, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact Knebel was removed from Friday's spring game after he was hit by a comebacker, but Roberts didn't sound too concerned about the issue. The right-hander is expected to pitch in one of the team's final three Cactus League games and should be ready for the regular season if all goes well.

Removed from Friday's game Knebel was removed from Friday's spring game against the Athletics with an apparent left wrist injury, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Knebel was hit by a comebacker in the fifth inning Friday and was able to throw the runner out at first, but he was removed from the game after he was visited by a trainer. The right-hander didn't appear to be in considerable pain, but the severity of his injury isn't yet known.

Impact The veteran reliever has looked great in his first spring with the Dodgers, allowing only one run and four hits across six innings while posting a 7:2 K:BB. His strong showing has likely earned him a spot in the team's Opening Day bullpen.

Avoids arbitration Knebel signed a one-year, $5.25 million contract with the Dodgers on Thursday, avoiding arbitration, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

Impact Knebel was dealt to the Dodgers in early December, and he won't have to go through arbitration with his new club after agreeing to terms Thursday. The right-hander struggled in his return from Tommy John surgery in 2020, posting a 6.08 ERA over 13.1 innings, but he'll attempt to return to form in 2021 and could get to work in some lower-leverage situations given the depth of the Dodgers' bullpen.
