Dodgers Claim Jordan Jankowski From Astros

By Connor Byrne | August 20, 2017 at 1:07pm CDT

The Dodgers have claimed right-hander Jordan Jankowski off waivers from the Astros, per an announcement from Los Angeles. The hurler had been in limbo since the Astros designated him for assignment this past Monday.

[Updated Dodgers Depth Chart]

A 34th-round pick of the Astros in 2012, Jankowski made his major league debut earlier this year and fared poorly across 4 1/3 innings, surrendering six earned runs on seven hits and two walks, with five strikeouts. Jankowski hasn’t produced great results in 40 1/3 Triple-A frames this season, either, with a 5.13 ERA, 5.13 BB/9 and a 36.8 percent ground-ball rate. The 28-year-old has averaged nearly 12 strikeouts per nine at that level this season, however, adding to his impressive bat-missing history in the minors. In 174 1/3 lifetime Triple-A innings, Jankowski has fanned exactly 12 hitters per nine, against 4.5 BB/9, and posted a 3.87 ERA.

Jankowski, who has three minor league options remaining, will report to the Dodgers’ Triple-A affiliate in Oklahoma City.

    Was Dallas Keuchel consulted on this move?

    The Dodgers have done a great job of stocking their Triple-A affiliates using this method.

      Ehh not really he’s basically a place holder until sept 1st as a hoard of 60 day guys and AAA guys added back to the 40. This roster is beyond packed.

    This could very well be a nice pickup, just lost Jacob Rhame in the Granderson trade as the PTBNL

    Glad to see him go. He was horrible in his call up and in AAA. But adds depth for the Dodgers minor league teams.

    He had a rough go this year, good to see him get a shot with a different organization.
