Edgardo Henriquez DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Edgardo Henriquez (foot) will not be ready for Opening Day. The right-handed pitcher was wearing a walking boot in the clubhouse after suffering a metatarsal injury. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression as he could return to action relatively early in the 2025 campaign. Last season, Henriquez made his MLB debut and allowed one earned run across three 1/3 innings of work. He tallied five punchouts and generated a 1.20 xERA and a .075 xBA. Last summer, Henriquez opened the campaign at Single-A and progressed through Triple-A before reaching the big leagues. In 12 2/3 innings at Triple-A, the 22-year-old held a 2.84 ERA with a 1.89 WHIP. He held a 10:18 BB:K ratio. When healthy, he should compete for a role in the Dodger bullpen.

The Los Angeles Dodgers called up pitching prospect Edgardo Henriquez from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, according to sources. Henriquez had been on the Dodgers' radar for pitching help at the big-league level despite starting the 2024 season at Single-A Rancho Cucamonga. His fastball has been clocked at up to 104 mph this year, so he could become an option out of the bullpen to close out the final week of the regular season and for the playoffs in October when they're looking for a key late-inning punchout. The 22-year-old Venezuelan right-hander has posted a 2.72 ERA, 1.23 WHIP, 88 strikeouts and 29 walks in 53 innings over 43 appearances (five starts) at four minor-league levels in 2024. The team's No. 15 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, obviously has swing-and-miss stuff at all levels, but his command could get him in trouble quickly.
