Out · expected back around Feb 1
Casparius landed on the injured list in mid-April due to right shoulder inflammation. He began a rehab stint July 25 and has logged 10 appearances with Triple-A Oklahoma City. The righty reliever has struggled to a 7.27 ERA, 2.56 WHIP and 10:14 K:BB over 8.2 innings, though he had been showing improvement with just one earned run allowed across his past five frames. It's unclear how much Casparius' arm fatigue will set him back, but it's certainly possible that he won't return to the big-league club this year given both the injury and his poor overall numbers during the rehab assignment.

Casparius (shoulder) experienced arm fatigue while on a minor-league rehab assignment and has been shut down from throwing, MLB.com reports.
Casparius landed on the injured list in mid-April due to right shoulder inflammation. He began a rehab stint July 25 and has logged 10 appearances with Triple-A Oklahoma City. The righty reliever struggled to a 7.27 ERA, 2.56 WHIP and 10:14 K:BB over 8.2 innings during his rehab assignment, though he had been showing improvement with just one earned run allowed across his past five frames. It's unclear how much Casparius' arm fatigue will set him back, but it's certainly possible that he won't return to the big-league club this year.

Casparius (shoulder) made the third appearance of his rehab assignment Friday with Triple-A Oklahoma City, allowing one earned run on no hits and four walks while recording just one out.
The right-hander has had a rough start to his rehab assignment as he works his way back from right shoulder inflammation, an injury that has kept him on the shelf since April 13. Through his first three outings, Casparius has covered two innings and has yielded two earned runs on one hit while issuing eight walks. Casparius may need close to the entire 30-day rehab window to build up and iron out his control before coming off the 60-day injured list.

Casparius (shoulder) was moved to the 60-day injured list Monday.
Casparius has been cleared to start a throwing program, but he's evidently not close to a return yet, which is why the Dodgers bumped him over to the 60-day injured list. This clears up a spot on the 40-man roster for Jonathan Hernandez, who was signed to a deal with LA on Monday.

Casparius (shoulder) has been throwing at the Dodgers' complex in Arizona, per MLB.com.
Casparius has been on the IL since April 13 due to right shoulder inflammation. While he's doing some throwing, there's no word on when the right-hander may begin a rehab assignment, so he's unlikely to return to the Dodgers' bullpen in the immediate future. Casparius allowed five earned runs over 4.1 innings spanning five relief appearances this season before being shelved.

The Dodgers placed Casparius on the 15-day injured list Monday with right shoulder inflammation, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Casparius allowed two runs on two hits and two walks Sunday against the Rangers, which was the third straight appearance he had been scored upon. The righty will be eligible to return near the end of April, but it's uncertain at this point whether he'll be ready on that date. Kyle Hurt is taking Casparius' spot on the roster and in the bullpen.

Casparius said Saturday at DodgerFest, the team's fan event, that he prepared himself as a starting pitcher this offseason, Steve Webb of DodgersBeat.com reports.
Casparius wore many hats for the Dodgers in 2025, making starts, bulk relief appearances, long relief outings and high-leverage appearances. He finished with a 4.64 ERA and 71:21 K:BB over 77.2 regular-season frames. Slated to turn 27 later this week, Casparius is a long shot to open 2026 in the rotation, given the Dodgers' other options that are ahead of him on the depth chart, but he'll stay stretched out just in case.
