Dodgers option Hyeseong Kim to Triple-A, re-sign Santiago Espinal
The Los Angeles Dodgers have made significant roster changes, including optioning Hyeseong Kim to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

- ▪Hyeseong Kim was optioned to Triple-A after a poor performance, hitting 14-for-62 with no home runs in May.
- ▪Santiago Espinal was re-signed by the Dodgers after clearing waivers, providing depth against left-handed pitching.
- ▪Blake Snell was transferred to the 60-day injured list to make room for Espinal on the 40-man roster.
