Dodgers promote Kyle Hurt from Triple-A, designate Cole Irvin for assignment

The Los Angeles Dodgers have called up Kyle Hurt from Triple-A Oklahoma City and designated Cole Irvin for assignment. The move was made to provide a fresh arm to the bullpen, which has been tested in recent games. Irvin pitched six innings in a game against the Boston Red Sox on Friday night, a performance that was significant in helping the bullpen recover for upcoming games. Also, Wyatt Mills has been activated while Will Klein has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to elbow discomfort. Hurt has appeared in 33 games this season, posting a 4.59 ERA.
