The Los Angeles Dodgers are just over two weeks away from the start of Spring Training, and while plenty of attention has gone to the signings of Edwin D\u00edaz and Kyle Tucker, the front office has methodically looked to fill out organizational depth as well.<\/p>\n
Included in that was claiming Ryan Fitzgerald off waivers and signing Andy Ib\u00e1\u00f1ez. Ironically, Fitzgerald was designated for assignment in order to make room for Ib\u00e1\u00f1ez on the Dodgers’ 40-man roster. <\/p>\n
Fitzgerald cleared waivers and was sent outright<\/a> to Triple-A Oklahoma City. The Dodgers weren’t as fortunate upon their DFA of Michael Siani<\/a>.<\/p>\n In another move aimed at stockpiling potential roster options, the Dodgers signed Ryder Ryan to a Minor League contract, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic<\/a>. He’s the older brother of River Ryan, who is looking to return from Tommy John surgery this year.<\/p>\n The Dodgers signed RHP Ryder Ryan to a minor league deal, sources tell The Athletic. Brother of Dodgers RHP River Ryan. Will make $800K if he makes the majors.<\/p>\n
