Dodgers designated RHP Lance Cormier for assignment. | ||||||
He was cleared to make room for Rubby De La Rosa on the roster. The 30-year-old Cormier made the Dodgers out of spring training as a non-roster invitee, but has posted an ugly 9.88 ERA and 7/5 K/BB ratio over his first 13 2/3 innings this season. | ||||||

Dodgers signed RHP Lance Cormier to a minor league contract. | ||||||
The contract includes an invite to big league spring training, where he'll compete for a spot in Don Mattingly's bullpen. Cormier, 30, posted a superficially solid 3.92 ERA across 60 relief appearances with the Rays last season, but he did so with an awful 30/34 K/BB over 62 innings. | ||||||

The Rays badly need bullpen depth, but not at the cost that it would have taken to retain Cormier. He earned $1.2 million in 2010 and would have secured a raise via arbitration despite posting a 1.65 WHIP over 60 relief appearances. The Rays may try to re-sign him at a lesser rate. | ||||||
