The Los Angeles Dodgers made their first wave of Spring Training roster cuts on Monday morning, with 28 players removed from the Major League clubhouse at Camelback Ranch. Manager Dave Roberts indicated last week a significant number of players were due to be sent to the Minor League side.
“I think it’s important for the focus to get a little bit more narrow as far as numbers and guys to go to the other side and get their repetitions,” Roberts explained.
Pitchers Gerardo Carrillo, Andre Jackson, Edwin Uceta and Alex Vesia, along with outfielders Zach Reks and Luke Raley, and catcher Keibert Ruiz were optioned.
