Bobby Miller – Right Hand Pitcher

The Dodgers have announced that they have optioned Bobby Miller to Triple-A Oklahoma City Comets. Bobby Miller only made one spring appearance and took a line drive off the head in that outing. Miller avoided any fractures. He was placed in concussion protocol. Michael Busch of the Chicago Cubs lined the ball back up the middle, which struck Miller in the head. Last season Miller made 13 starts for the Dodgers. He had two wins, four losses, and an ERA of 8.52. He pitched 56 innings last year striking out 52 batters, walking 30, and ending the year with a 1.77 WHIP.

Hyeseong Kim – Second base

The Los Angeles Dodgers have optioned Kim to the Triple-A Oklahoma City Comets to start the year. This spring, in 29 at-bats, he had six hits and one home run. He also had three RBIs, two stolen bases, and a batting average of .207. Kim last year played in the KBO league for Kiwoom Heroes in Korea. He was signed by the Dodgers on January 3rd, 2025. He will start his first season in the Major Leagues with the Oklahoma Comets in Triple-A alongside Bobby Miller.
