The Los Angeles Dodgers signed Lou Trivino to a Minor League contract to bolster their pitching depth amid injuries to key players. After being designated for assignment by the San Francisco Giants, Trivino found a new opportunity with the Dodgers. In his brief time, he allowed only three baserunners in five innings, solidifying his role in high-pressure situations. Manager Dave Roberts praised Trivino's veteran presence and performance, indicating a potential for more significant leverage roles in an injury-depleted bullpen.
"I saw him filling up the strike zone, not running away from the moment. He's obviously a veteran pitcher. He's pitched in a lot of high leverage."
"And quite frankly, there's opportunities right now for our 'pen, for guys to earn high-leverage opportunities. And so if you can show you can go out there and pitch and get outs in leverage, then I'm going to pitch you."
