"11 players were cut from big-league camp around the start of March, and then the Dodgers snipped 12 more from their roster over a week ago. Those cuts included the 40-man additions from this off-season in outfielder and pitcher, who were optioned to AAA, while 10 non-roster invitees were sent to minor-league camp."
"While none of them were necessarily expected to make the team, Ward certainly seemed to have a fighting chance at making the decision tough for the team, and he responded by not producing much of anything in his opportunities. On the other hand, fellow fringe roster candidates Gervase and Kopp looked quite solid, but if there's one thing the Dodgers have at the moment it's reliever candidates."
"And so there are now 23 pitchers and 20 position players left in major-league camp (excluding the two already on the 60-day IL), leaving them at 43 total for 17 cuts left to go. Realistically though, there are five pitchers and one position player who have all but been confirmed to start the year on the IL and aren't on it yet, leaving 18 pitchers and 19 position players for a total of 37 and 11 cuts left."
The Dodgers conducted several rounds of roster cuts during Spring Training, removing 31 players total from major-league camp. Initial cuts included 11 players at the start of March, followed by 12 more a week later, and 8 additional cuts after a recent game. These cuts involved both 40-man roster additions and non-roster invitees being optioned or reassigned to minor-league camp. Notable players cut include outfielders and pitchers who failed to produce in their opportunities. The team currently has 23 pitchers and 20 position players remaining in major-league camp, with approximately 17 cuts still needed. Additionally, five pitchers and one position player are expected to start the season on the injured list.
