The Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday transferred Scott Kazmir to the 60-day disabled list as one of two corresponding moves to clear room on the 40-man roster for Mike Freeman and Chris Heston, who were claimed off waivers from the Seattle Mariners.
The paper move changed nothing in regards to Kazmir’s status, other than delay when he’s eligible to be activated. He began the season on the 10-day DL, retroactive to March 30.
Kazmir joined the Dodgers at Chase Field near the end of April, and reunited with the club once they concluded that road trip. He threw bullpen sessions both times, and though a return wasn’t considered imminent, Kazmir wasn’t thought to be too far off.
