Blake Treinen's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

The Los Angeles Dodgers are bringing back reliever Blake Treinen on a two-year, $22 million contract. The 36-year-old had a fantastic season coming out of the 'pen for the Dodgers, recording 16 holds and a save on the back of a 1.93 ERA, 0.94 WHIP, and an 11:56 BB:K over 46 2/3 IP. It was a superb bounce-back performance after missing all of 2023 and most of 2022 with a shoulder injury. The 2024 campaign culminated with two-and-a-third innings of one-hit ball in Game 5 of the World Series where he allowed one hit and one walk while striking out three, going down as the winning pitcher in the series finale. For his career, the righty owns a 2.78 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, and a 24.8% strikeout rate. For fantasy in 2025, he'll be relevant in any league that rewards holds and could be considered in other leagues were he pressed into a closer role.

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Blake Treinen recorded the final six outs of Game 6 of the NLCS, earning the save in a 10-5 win over the New York Mets. The 36-year-old allowed one run on two hits while striking out four. Treinen was the seventh Dodgers reliever used in this one, as manager Dave Roberts elected to go with a bullpen game. It wasn't pretty, as five of the seven allowed a run, but they got the job done. As for Treinen, the run he allowed in this one was the first he has given up in eight postseason innings. Los Angeles will need him to continue that form against the New York Yankees in what should be an entertaining World Series.

The Los Angeles Dodgers activated relief pitcher Blake Treinen (hip) and optioned right-hander Ben Casparius to the minor leagues ahead of Wednesday's game against the visiting Seattle Mariners at Dodger Stadium. Treinen is back to help LA's bullpen after a rehab outing and a brief stint on the injured list due to left hip discomfort. The 36-year-old veteran right-hander holds a solid 2.67 ERA and 1.09 WHIP with 38 strikeouts and nine walks over 30 1/3 innings this season, but he's converted just one of his five save opportunities while picking up nine holds. Even with the Dodgers appearing to sport a three-man committee at closer amongst Michael Kopech, Daniel Hudson, and Evan Phillips at the moment, Treinen is still likely to handle his fair share of high-leverage work.

Los Angeles Dodgers right-handed reliever Blake Treinen (hip) made a minor-league rehab appearance with Double-A Tulsa on Saturday and tossed a scoreless inning, walking none, striking out the side and not allowing a hit. Treinen appears to be on track to come off the 15-day injured list on the first day he's eligible on Tuesday after the dominant rehab outing over the weekend. The 36-year-old veteran is recovering from left-hip discomfort but should be back in the big-league bullpen this week. It's looking like trade acquisition Michael Kopech is taking over the closing duties in LA, but Treinen will return to a high-leverage, late-inning setup role when he's activated off the IL. In 34 appearances out of the bullpen in 2024, Treinen has been solid, posting a 2.67 ERA, a 1.09 WHIP, one save, 38 strikeouts and nine walks in 30 1/3 innings pitched.

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Blake Treinen (hip) is going on the injured list ahead of Monday's series opener against the visiting Philadelphia Phillies with left hip discomfort, and Brusdar Graterol (shoulder) was activated from the 60-day IL in a corresponding move. Treinen holds a solid 2.67 ERA and 1.09 WHIP with 38 strikeouts and nine walks over 30 1/3 innings for the Dodgers this season, but he's converted just one of his five save opportunities while collecting nine holds. Despite stopper Evan Phillips' struggles, the 36-year-old veteran right-hander hasn't been able to stake a real claim as a potential closing option. Graterol's first appearance will mark his 2024 season debut, and he will offer LA's bullpen a replacement arm after his long bout of shoulder inflammation. Last year, the 25-year-old right-hander produced a 1.20 ERA and 0.97 WHIP to go with a 48:10 K:BB and seven saves over 67 1/3 frames.
