In setting their postseason roster for the Wild Card Series, the Los Angeles Dodgers decided on Matt Beaty, Terrance Gore and Keibert Ruiz for the final spots on the position player side. Each of the three was a bit of a surprise, but their value was evident.
In Gore’s case, it marked only his second time being up with the Dodgers this year. He was signed to a Minor League contract in February and designated for assignment at the end of July. Gore cleared waivers one week later and was outrighted to the Dodgers’ alternate training site.
