Jaime Schultz was designated for assignment on Thursday in order to create room for Rich Hill on the Los Angeles Dodgers’ 40-man roster. Hill was reinstated from the 60-day injured list for his start in the series finale against the Baltimore Orioles.
It’s expected to be the first of four outings in September as Hill builds up to being in position to serve a as a fourth starter for the Dodgers in the postseason. He’d been sidelined by a strained flexor tendon since June 20.
Schultz was in his first season with the Dodgers after spending the past six with the Tampa Bay Rays.
