"It's rare that one of these Game Threads leads with news of a pen activation, but really that's entirely the Dodgers problem at the moment, as they would be on one hell of a run to close the season if the pen would stop blowing 3-5 run leads.

"Speaking of, Roki Sasaki was activated and Kirby Yates was put on the IL to save him the embarrassment of being DFA'd, I guess. The Dodgers have activated RHP Roki Sasaki from the injured list and placed RHP Kirby Yates on the injured list with a right hamstring strain, backdated to September 21.- Los Angeles Dodgers (@Dodgers) September 25, 2025 Clayton Kershaw is also available out of the pen today. Dave Roberts said Clayton Kershaw is available for one inning tonight. "I have no hesitation pitching him in any situation tonight."- Fabian Ardaya (@FabianArdaya) September 25, 2025"
Dodgers bullpen instability has cost multiple games by surrendering 3–5 run leads late in the season. The team activated RHP Roki Sasaki and placed RHP Kirby Yates on the injured list with a right hamstring strain backdated to September 21. Clayton Kershaw is available for relief and is cleared to pitch an inning in any situation. Brock Stewart is experiencing residual shoulder soreness, remains day-to-day, and may be activated before the end of the week. The Dodgers posted a lineup against the Diamondbacks and continue using roster moves to manage late-season pitching uncertainty.
