Dodgers Make Surprising Roster Move, Designate James Paxton For Assignment
Briefly

Sources: James Paxton is being designated for assignment by the Los Angeles Dodgers.- Robert Murray (@ByRobertMurray) July 22, 2024
Dodgers needed to clear a 40-man roster spot and active roster spot for River Ryan, who debuts today. Paxton was 8-2 with a 4.43 ERA in 18 starts, one of just two Dodgers starters to make every turn through the rotation so far. - Fabian Ardaya (@FabianArdaya) July 22, 2024
Paxton made his last appearance with the Dodgers on Sunday against the Boston Red Sox, where he got the start. The Dodgers were almost unbeatable with him on the mound, going 14-4 as Paxton recorded an 8-2 record himself in L.A.
Paxton has been solid and surprisingly healthy for the Dodgers, who have suffered an immense number of injuries thus far. Many believed Paxton would have faced injuries due to his history; however, he's been one of the healthier pitchers in the rotation.
