The Los Angeles Dodgers optioned DJ Peters to Minor League camp prior to Friday’s game against the Oakland Athletics, marking a fourth instance of the club carrying out roster cuts. L.A. now has 35 players remaining in big league camp.
They will finish the spring with that many until needing to finalize an Opening Day roster next week. “We’re going to kind of run these guys out there through that Freeway Series and then make a decision then,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said after a loss to the Oakland Athletics.
He added the team plans to carry 13 pitchers and 13 position players on their active roster to start the season.
