Back in majors Atlanta recalled Dodd from Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday.

Impact Dodd was optioned after firing a scoreless two-thirds of an inning during Thursday's doubleheader, but he'll instead stick with the big club as bullpen depth for the weekend series against the Red Sox. It may not be a lengthy stay in the majors for the left-hander, since Atlanta will have to fill AJ Smith-Shawver's (elbow) rotation spot early next week.

Returned to Triple-A Dodd was returned to Triple-A Gwinnett following Thursday's doubleheader against the Phillies, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Impact Dodd provided extra depth out of Atlanta's bullpen and retired both of the batters he faced in the eighth inning of the opening contest. That appearance marked his season debut in the majors, though he could be an option for a low-leverage role at some point during the summer.

Added as 27th man Atlanta recalled Dodd from Triple-A Gwinnett to serve as the 27th man for Thursday's doubleheader versus the Phillies.

Impact Dodd will be available as an option out of the bullpen for both contests of the twin bill but will likely head back to Gwinnett on Friday. After making 20 starts at Gwinnett in 2024, the left-hander has made the full-time transition to a relief role in 2025. Through 18 appearances at Triple-A this season, Dodd owns a 5.00 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 24:3 K:BB in 18 innings.

Returns to Triple-A Dodd was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett after Sunday's 10-4 win over the Red Sox, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Impact Dodd will head back to Triple-A after being promoted to the major-league roster prior to Atlanta's three-game set in Boston over the weekend. The left-hander failed to appear in a contest while with the big-league club and he'll now have to wait for his next shot with the team later this season. The transaction opens a space for Spencer Strider (hamstring) to return from the 15-day injured list Tuesday in Washington.

MAY 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Called up Friday Atlanta recalled Dodd from Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday.

Impact The left-hander opened the campaign with Gwinnett and hasn't pitched particularly well with a 5.74 ERA and 1.38 WHIP across 15.2 innings, though a 21:3 K:BB is more encouraging. Dodd has primarily worked as a starter in the past, but all 16 of his appearances at Triple-A this season have come out of the bullpen.

MAY 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Triple-A Atlanta optioned Dodd to Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.

Impact Dodd only made one appearance for Atlanta during spring training, during which he allowed two earned runs on three hits over one inning. Now set to begin the 2025 season in Triple-A, the 26-year-old southpaw will likely need to improve upon his 5.35 ERA from last year before getting another look in the majors.

FEBRUARY 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sent back to minors Atlanta optioned Dodd to Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday.

Impact Dodd gave up a couple runs in a two-inning relief appearance Wednesday versus Milwaukee. He's being replaced on the roster by Parker Dunshee, who will give Atlanta a fresh bullpen arm.

AUGUST 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back with big club Atlanta recalled Dodd from Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Dodd will provide length in the bullpen after Bryce Elder had an abbreviated start Tuesday against the Brewers. The left-handed Dodd was up briefly with Atlanta last month but didn't make an appearance. He holds a 4.85 ERA and 82:28 K:BB over 91 innings this year at Gwinnett.

AUGUST 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sent back to minors Atlanta optioned Dodd to Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.

Impact Dodd didn't make an appearance during his brief stint with the big club. He's being replaced on the roster by Allan Winans, who will start the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Reds.

JULY 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Summoned from Triple-A, could start Atlanta recalled Dodd from Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday.

Impact Dodd should be available out of the bullpen for Sunday's series finale with the Cardinals, but Atlanta may prefer to stay away from the left-hander so that he can make a start during the club's upcoming three-game series with the Reds this week. Atlanta has an opening in its rotation after Max Fried was surprisingly placed on the 15-day injured list Sunday in a corresponding move due to left forearm neuritis. After turning in a 7.60 ERA over seven starts with the big club in 2023, Dodd has pitched exclusively for Gwinnett thus far in 2024, logging a 4.99 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 76:26 K:BB across 83 innings.

JULY 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Lines up for big-league start Dodd is among the top candidates to make a spot start for Atlanta on Tuesday against the Astros, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Impact Dodd had a tough start Thursday night for Triple-A Gwinnett, allowing five earned runs across 4.2 innings while allowing six hits and two walks to go along with five strikeouts. However, he had pitched very well in two prior outings with Gwinnett, putting himself in the conversation for a promotion. His start Thursday notably puts him on turn with the vacated spot in the big-league rotation. Darius Vines and Bryce Elder are also vying for the job, and they are scheduled to pitch Friday and Saturday, respectively, for Gwinnett. If either is scratched, it could be an indication that they will get the call in place of Dodd.

APRIL 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Headed to Triple-A Dodd was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett by Atlanta on Monday.

Impact Dodd is a good bet to make some starts with the big club this season, but as things stand right now there's no room for him. The left-hander held a 7.60 ERA over seven starts with Atlanta last season.

MARCH 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Hit hard in finale Dodd (2-2) allowed five runs on nine hits and a walk while striking out one over six innings Sunday against the Nationals. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Dodd gave up a four-spot to the Nationals in the first inning and then allowed another run to score in the second. He was able to settle in the rest of the way, allowing three hits over the next four innings and exited with the game tied at five. The 25-year-old finishes the year with a 7.60 ERA, 1.89 WHIP and 15:12 K:BB over 34.1 innings (seven starts) and should be expected to start next season at Triple-A Gwinnett.

Promoted for Sunday's start Dodd was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett to start Sunday's regular-season finale against the Nationals, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact The 25-year-old was previously announced as Atlanta's probable starter for Sunday, and he's now officially been added to the MLB roster. Dodd has a 7.62 ERA, 1.94 WHIP and 14:11 K:BB across 28.1 innings (six starts) this season, but he'll receive a chance to end the campaign on a positive note with game No. 162 being meaningless for Atlanta.

OCTOBER 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Sunday Dodd will be recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett to start Sunday's game against the Nationals, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Impact Dodd's last big-league start dates back to Sept. 9 against the Pirates, when he surrendered four runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out two across four innings. He'll be tasked with eating innings for Atlanta with little left to play for before the postseason begins.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Sent to Triple-A Dodd was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday.

Impact Dodd made his first big-league start since June versus the Pirates on Saturday, but he'll return to Triple-A after he surrendered four runs on seven hits and three walks over four innings. The left-hander has a 7.62 ERA and 14:11 K:BB across 28.1 frames in the majors this season, so he likely won't be atop the list of candidates should Atlanta need another spot starter down the stretch.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Struggles versus Pittsburgh Dodd (2-2) allowed four runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out two over four-plus innings to take the loss Saturday versus the Pirates.

Impact Dodd's first major-league outing since June 14 didn't go very well. He ran into trouble in the third inning when the Pirates rallied for three runs, and more issues emerged before he got a quick hook in the fifth. The rookie left-hander has a 7.62 ERA, 1.94 WHIP and 14:11 K:BB over 28.1 innings across six starts. Darius Vines allowed one run over three innings in a relief assignment Saturday, so it's unclear if Dodd will be in the mix for any starts beyond this one, especially if Kyle Wright (shoulder) is activated next week.

Will get start Saturday Dodd will be called up from Triple-A Gwinnett to start Saturday in Atlanta against the Pirates, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Impact Dodd made the Opening Day rotation out of camp this spring, but he has posted an ugly 7.40 ERA in five major-league starts (24.1 innings) and a 6.55 ERA in 69.1 innings at Triple-A. The 25-year-old is a risky fantasy streaming option, even versus Pittsburgh.

Impact Dodd was making his first appearance for Gwinnett since June 22 after missing nearly six weeks due to the unspecified injury. The 26-year-old southpaw has previously made six starts for Atlanta this season, but after compiling an 8.02 ERA and 1.90 WHIP in 42.2 innings through his 10 outings with Gwinnett, he's unlikely to receive another promotion anytime soon.
