The Dodgers made several changes to the active roster Monday, activating Hyun-jin Ryu and recalling relievers Josh Ravin and Edward Paredes. To make room, Clayton Kershaw and Brandon McCarthy were sent to the 10-day disabled list while Trayce Thompson was optioned.
It’s not clear how long Kershaw or McCarthy will stay on the DL but McCarthy figures to be back shortly with a minor blister issue.
The news earlier in the day had Kershaw missing at least four to six weeks. The team wouldn’t say that was the case and manager Dave Roberts said there would be more news to come after the front office met with team doctor, Robert Watkins.
