The Dodgers optioned Landon Knack to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

EDGE Analysis

Knack allowed five runs over five innings across two appearances since being activated. Charlie Barnes had his contract selected as the corresponding move.

Knack struck out two and allowed three earned runs on four hits and two walks across three innings in relief Saturday in the Dodgers' 9-2 loss to the Diamondbacks.

EDGE Analysis

After being reinstated from the 60-day injured list Saturday following a lengthy recovery from an intercostal strain, Knack was put to work right away in the Dodgers' penultimate game of the first half. With starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto getting chased from the contest after five innings, Knack mopped up in long relief, needing 60 pitches to record his nine outs. The right-hander made 19 starts at the big-league level over the previous two seasons, but he looks like he'll have to settle for a bullpen role unless another injury creates an opening in the Dodgers' six-man rotation.

The Dodgers reinstated Knack (chest) from the 60-day injured list Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Knack has been on the injured list since Opening Day due to an intercostal strain, but he's now been cleared to rejoin the Dodgers' pitching staff after giving up three runs in seven innings across three minor-league rehab outings. The 28-year-old righty has been used primarily as a starter throughout his career, but he'll most likely work as a long reliever while he eases his way back into big-league action. Kyle Hurt was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City to free up a spot for Knack on the active roster, and Charlie Barnes was DFA'd to clear a 40-man spot.

Knack (intercostal) will make his third rehab start Sunday with Triple-A Oklahoma City.

EDGE Analysis

During his most recent outing Tuesday, Knack built up to 2.2 innings and 50 pitches (30 strikes) while striking out four batters and allowing no runs on one hit and one walk. He'll look to build up his pitch count a bit more Sunday and will likely require one more rehab start beyond that before potentially returning from the 60-day injured list coming out of the All-Star break. The Dodgers aren't expected to have a rotation spot available for Knack, but he could join the big club as a long reliever if he isn't optioned to Triple-A upon his activation from the IL.

Knack (chest) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday, yielding two runs on five hits and one walk over 1.1 innings.

EDGE Analysis

Knack struck out a pair in the outing and got his pitch count up to 33. The right-hander has been out all season with an intercostal strain, and he will be built up as a starting pitcher before likely remaining in the OKC rotation once he's activated from the 60-day injured list.

The Dodgers transferred Knack (chest) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Knack has been on the injured list since the start of the season due to an intercostal strain, and his move to the 60-day IL will ensure he remains on the IL until at least late May. His 40-man spot will be given to Tyler Fitzgerald, who was acquired in a trade with Toronto on Tuesday.

The Dodgers placed Knack (undisclosed) on the 15-day injured list Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The team didn't provide an injury designation for Knack, so it's unclear how much time he might miss. He was roughed up for eight runs over 6.2 innings during Cactus League play. The Dodgers are dealing with multiple injuries in their rotation, so Knack could get some starts if his injury isn't a long-term concern.

The Dodgers recalled Knack from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Knack will join the active roster for the final game of the regular season Sunday in Seattle after lefty Andrew Heaney was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move. The 27-year-old right-hander has appeared in nine games for the Dodgers in 2025, making seven starts and posting a 5.12 ERA and a 1.47 WHIP across 38.2 innings.

The Dodgers optioned Knack to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Knack had made six consecutive turns through the Dodgers rotation, posting a 4.50 ERA and a 28:12 K:BB over 30 innings, but he'll yield his spot to Justin Wrobleski. In four appearances with Oklahoma City this season, Knack logged a 3.98 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP across 20.1 innings.

Knack worked in just 3.1 innings Thursday, allowing four runs on four hits and five walks while striking out one during a 6-5 win against the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

It was a tough outing for a pitcher who looked like he was turning a corner after back-to-back starts of six innings allowing just one earned run. Of Knack's 86 pitches Friday, 40 of them were balls, leading to a season-high five walks in the game. He also surrendered a season-high three home runs though all three came with no outs. That's a pattern that has continued over the 27-year-old's last five starts: the home run ball. Knack has surrendered nine home runs over that stretch, partially leading to his 5.12 ERA on the season. The right-hander is scheduled to make his next start on the road at San Diego.
