August 1, 2025 6:38 PM : The Dodgers placed Yates on the 15-day injured list Friday due to lower back pain, retroactive to July 29.
Analysis: Yates hasn't made an appearance since this past Saturday against the Red Sox, and that absence was due to a back injury. He's been a steady presence out of the Dodgers' bullpen this season and has a 4.31 ERA, 1.31 WHIP, 13 holds, two saves and a 44:12 K:BB across 31.1 innings. The Dodgers were able to bolster their bullpen depth by acquiring Brock Stewart and Paul Gervase from the Twins and Rays, respectively, earlier this week.
