In announcing their recent acquisition of lefty Tyler Olson from the Mariners, the Dodgers also announced that they had designated righty Danny Reynolds for assignment. Reynolds’ time in the Dodgers organization has been brief, as they claimed him from the Angels less than two weeks ago.
The 24-year-old Reynolds spent the 2015 season pitching in relief with the Angels’ Double-A Arkansas affiliate, and he struggled with his control, posting a 4.57 ERA with 10.4 K/9 and 5.8 BB/9 after earning a place on the Angels’ 40-man roster with a better campaign the previous season. Most reports indicate, however, that Reynolds’ fastball plays very well in relief, reaching into the high 90s.
