DONE DEAL!! Dodgers bring key reliever Blake Treinen back on two-year, $22 million deal

The Los Angeles Dodgers will retain one of their biggest bullpen pieces from last season after agreeing to a two-year, $22 million deal with the right-handed pitcher, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan.

Blake Treinen agrees to return to Dodgers on $22 million deal

Treinen, 36, missed the 2023 big league season while recovering from labrum and rotator cuff surgery on Nov. 11, 2022. He bruised a lung on March 9 when hit by a line drive off the bat of the Texas Rangers’ Sam Huff and didn’t make his season debut until May 5.

Treinen went 7-3 with a 1.93 ERA in 50 relief appearances, striking out 56 and walking 11 in 46 2/3 innings. He was 2-0 with a 2.19 ERA in nine postseason appearances for the World Series champions.

He had a $1 million base salary last season in the option year of a contract that called for an $8 million salary in 2023.
