As expected, the Los Angeles Dodgers reinstated Franklin Gutierrez from the 10-day disabled list ahead of Tuesday’s matchup against the San Francisco Giants. Scott Van Slyke was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City in a corresponding roster move.
Gutierrez had been sidelined since suffering a hamstring strain on April 10. The injury was sustained on a stolen base attempt during the second inning, and Gutierrez was placed on the DL two days later, though it was retroactive to April 11.
During his recovery process at Camelback Ranch, the veteran outfielder was hit by a pitch, which delayed his return.
