Dodgers Outright Rocky Gale

By Steve Adams | July 23, 2019 at 7:51pm CDT

The Dodgers have outrighted catcher Rocky Gale off the 40-man roster, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com tweets. The move drops the club’s 40-man roster to a total of 38 players.

Gale, 31, went 2-for-15 in a brief stint with the Dodgers earlier this season but has spent the bulk of the season in Triple-A Oklahoma City, where he’s batted .250/.303/.370 in 109 plate appearances. He’s spent the season as the primary backup to top catching prospect Will Smith in Triple-A, but the recent promotion of fellow top catching prospect Keibert Ruiz to Oklahoma City has further reduced Gale’s role on the roster.

Gale has appeared in 22 big league games between the Padres and Dodgers, though he’s received just 37 plate appearances in that time (and hit .108/.108/.189). The former ninth-round pick is a lifetime .277/.315/.359 in parts of nine Triple-A seasons.

    I’m sure it’s a rocky road ahead for this guy. Just the way the wind blows sometimes I guess

      Looks like they have room for 2. Smith and Lux perhaps?

      Deadline additions? Rarely do the Dodgers do nothing at the deadline.

        Right, but just trying to read the tea leaves, clearing two spots on the 40-man could mean that an impending trade does not involve anyone currently on it. That would seem to take the likes of Gonsolin, Smith, Ruiz, Rios, Beaty, and Garlick out as trading material, unless the deal is a huge one involving many players.
