Edwin Díaz - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

The Dodgers snapped a 7-game skid, but manager Dave Roberts wasn't in a celebratory mood

Impact Diaz was able to keep the ball in the yard this time, but he allowed back-to-back triples to Geraldo Perdomo and Corbin Carroll to yield the tying run in the bottom of the ninth inning. The Dodgers retook the lead in the 10th, and Jack Dreyer converted the save to give Diaz the win. At this point, it's getting tough to have any confidence in Diaz -- he's blown consecutive save chances and had been scored upon in four of five outings since returning from elbow surgery. Manager Dave Roberts hasn't given any indication of a change to the closer role yet, but it's safe to assume Diaz won't be asked to pitch a third straight day should a save chance arise Sunday.

Falters against Arizona Diaz (1-1) allowed two runs on one hit and one walk while logging one strikeout over one-third of an inning to take the loss and a blown save Friday versus the Diamondbacks.

Impact Diaz walked Max Kepler and then served up a walk-off blast to Ryan Waldschmidt two batters later. Across three innings since he returned from an elbow injury, Diaz has allowed four runs with a 4:2 K:BB, converting one of his two save chances. His closer job isn't in doubt yet, but the seat is likely getting hot, especially given the quality performances of many other members of the Dodgers' bullpen. Diaz is carrying an 11.00 ERA while converting five of seven save chances over his nine innings this season.

2026 MLB Trade Deadline: Every Contender's Biggest Need, Player Fits

Collects save in return Diaz allowed one run on two hits over one inning to earn the save in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Mariners.

Impact Diaz returned from an elbow surgery Wednesday, but he showed a little rust. He threw nine of 13 pitches for strikes and was able to lock down the save. The Dodgers clearly want Diaz to take the reins for closing duties, but they're not lacking in alternatives if he can't keep runs off the board. He's pitched to a 10.29 ERA and 10:5 K:BB through seven innings while converting five of six saves this season. If the Dodgers manage Diaz's workload, Tanner Scott and Alex Vesia would be the top options to see some ancillary save chances -- both pitched Wednesday in setup roles.

Activated from IL The Dodgers activated Diaz (elbow) from the 60-day injured list Wednesday.

Impact Diaz has been on the shelf since April 20 after undergoing surgery to remove loose bodies from his right elbow. He was cleared to embark on a rehab assignment right before the All-Star break, and across seven minor-league games he allowed two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out 11 over 5.2 innings. The Dodgers should ease Diaz back into the fold, but if all goes well, the veteran right-hander should reclaim the closer role from Tanner Scott at some point during the second half of the regular season.

Will be activated Wednesday The Dodgers plan to activate Diaz (elbow) off the injured list Wednesday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Impact Diaz landed on the injured list April 20 and underwent surgery on his right elbow just a couple of days later, which extended his absence. After missing over three months of action, the 32-year-old is finally set to return to the Dodgers bullpen Wednesday. Diaz will make his final rehab start Sunday with Triple-A Oklahoma before he rejoins the big-league club.
