Dodgers Sign Former All-Star Closer Shane Greene

Just a day after the Dodgers announced left-handed pitcher Cole Hamels‘ season was over without throwing a single pitch, the Dodgers signed another veteran pitcher with solid previous credentials.

It has been reported that the Dodgers are signing 32-year-old right-handed reliever Shane Greene to a major league deal. Greene was an All-Star closer with the Tigers in 2019, but with the Braves this season he’s struggled quite a bit. His ERA is 8.47 over 17 innings, which caused the Braves to release him. He also carries a WHIP of 1.824.

Greene is expected to join the Dodgers this weekend against the Mets.
