LOS ANGELES (AP) — Left-hander Alex Vesia, right-hander Brusdar Graterol and infielder Miguel Rojas were added to the Los Angeles Dodgers’ World Series roster before Friday’s opener against the New York Yankees.
Outfielder Kevin Kiermaier and right-handers Evan Phillips and Edgardo Henriquez were dropped.
Vesia was left off the NL Championship Series roster after an intercostal injury while warming up for NL Division Series Game 5 against San Diego on Oct. 11.
Rojas hasn’t played since Game 3 of the Padres matchup on Oct. 8 due to an adductor injury.
Graterol has been sidelined since Sept. 24 by inflammation in his pitching shoulder. Graterol pitched three scoreless outings in the 2020 World Series against Tampa Bay. He was limited to seven regular-season appearances this season.
Los Angeles stayed with 13 pitchers and 13 position players.
The Yankees had not yet announced their roster.
