Jonny DeLuca - Page 14 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Suffers broken right hand Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports that DeLuca sustained a broken right hand in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Red Sox.

Impact DeLuca was pulled from Sunday's game after being hit by a pitch. He got x-rays at the hospital which revealed a broken right hand, and the outfielder is expected to be re-evaluated after four-to-six weeks. It's a major blow for DeLuca, who was likely to make it onto the Rays' Opening Day roster after being acquired in a trade from the Dodgers in December. He played in 24 games for the Dodgers last season and slashed .262/.311/.429 with two home runs and six RBI over 45 plate appearances.

Back healthy, optioned DeLuca (hamstring) was activated from the injured list and optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.

Impact DeLuca has been sidelined for slightly over a month with a right hamstring strain. He tallied two homers and one stolen base across 45 big-league plate appearances prior to going down, though his primary contribution to the Dodgers was his excellent defense. DeLuca could be called up again prior to the close of the regular season, though his playing time would likely be sporadic.

Starts rehab assignment DeLuca (hamstring) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday.

Impact DeLuca had been on the shelf for the previous month with a strained right hamstring but is finally game-ready again. The outfielder might not be a given to be re-added to the big-league roster once ready, although rosters expanding to 28 in September could help his case.

AUGUST 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Placed on 10-day IL DeLuca was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right hamstring strain.

Impact DeLuca suffered the injury while running out a ground ball in Tuesday's win over the Blue Jays. Taking his spot on the roster will be Enrique Hernandez, who was re-acquired from the Red Sox.

Headed for IL Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said after Tuesday's 8-7 win over the Blue Jays that DeLuca (hamstring) will likely be placed on the 10-day injured list, Jack Harris of the Los Angele...

Impact DeLuca came off the bench in the sixth inning to replace Jason Heyward and went 0-for-2 while playing two innings in the field. In his final at-bat in the eighth inning, DeLuca hit a grounder to shortstop and suffered a hamstring strain while attempting to beat the throw. He was lifted from the game in the top of the ninth and now looks like he'll be sidelined for at least the next week and a half. The Dodgers acquired Enrique Hernandez in a trade with the Red Sox on Tuesday, and he'll likely assume DeLuca's spot on the 26-man active roster.

Exits with injury DeLuca was removed from Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays with an apparent injury, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact DeLuca was grabbing at his hamstring after attempting to beat out a grounder in the eight inning, and he limped off the field with a trainer. More updates on DeLuca's status will likely come after the game, and fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for the time being.

Swats second homer of career DeLuca hit a three-run home run as a pinch hitter in a 16-3 rout of the Rangers on Saturday.

Impact DeLuca came to the plate in the ninth inning to bat for Freddie Freeman, who was pulled for rest purposes with the Dodgers holding a big lead. The rookie capped the team's offensive onslaught with a three-run shot to left-center field. It was DeLuca's second career long ball, each of which has come as a pinch hitter. He's held his own in the majors thus far, slashing .250/.308/.444 with the two homers, six RBI, five runs and a stolen base over 39 plate appearances.

Returns to majors DeLuca was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact DeLuca lost his roster spot last week when the Dodgers signed Jake Marisnick, but now he's back with Marisnick landing on the injured list. He should see some starts in the outfield against left-handed pitching.

JULY 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Triple-A DeLuca was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday.

Impact The Dodgers brought in Jake Marisnick to occupy a short-side platoon role, which frees up DeLuca to head back to Triple-A and get regular at-bats once more. Even though DeLuca has only been used in a limited capacity this season, he is one of the Dodgers' top prospects and could play a larger role in the coming years. He hit .212 with one home run and one steal in 36 plate appearances.

JULY 9, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Hits first big-league homer DeLuca hit a solo home run in his only at-bat during Tuesday's 9-7 loss to the Pirates.

Impact DeLuca gave the Dodgers a 7-6 lead in the eighth inning with his first major-league homer, but the Pirates rallied back in the ninth. Playing time remains sparse for DeLuca, who has served as outfield depth since his June 4 recall to the majors. He's batting .259 (7-for-27) with three RBI, a stolen base, four runs scored and a double over 30 plate appearances.

Jonny Deluca hits his first big league home run to give the Dodgers a 7-6 lead over the Pirates

Draws walk in debut DeLuca went 0-for-2 with a walk in a loss to Cincinnati on Wednesday.

Impact DeLuca started in center field in his first big-league game after getting called up Sunday. He lined out in each of his first two plate appearances and drew a walk in his third before David Peralta pinch hit for him in the ninth. DeLuca will likely fill the reserve outfielder role previously handled by Trayce Thompson (oblique) before the latter went on the IL. That likely means DeLuca will see only occasional starts, and he is in fact out of the lineup for Thursday's early contest against the Reds.

JUNE 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starting in CF in debut DeLuca is starting in center field and batting eighth in his major-league debut Wednesday in Cincinnati, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Impact DeLuca was called up Sunday, but this will be his first action in the big leagues. The 24-year-old will go up against southpaw Brandon Williamson and figures to mostly face lefties while with the Dodgers. DeLuca has hit .292/.378/.574 this season between Double-A Tulsa and Triple-A Oklahoma City.

JUNE 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Promotion official DeLuca was called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City by the Dodgers on Sunday.

Impact The 24-year-old's promotion was reported Saturday night, and he's now been added to the big-league roster with Trayce Thompson (oblique) officially moving to the injured list. DeLuca isn't in the lineup for Sunday's series finale versus the Yankees, but it shouldn't be long before the young prospect makes his major-league debut.

JUNE 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Joining MLB club Sunday DeLuca will have his contract selected by the Dodgers from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact With Trayce Thompson (oblique) heading to the 10-day injured list, the Dodgers will bring up one of their top outfield prospects to take his place on the 26-man active roster. The 24-year-old has hit .292 with 14 homers and 12 stolen bases in 195 at-bats split between Double-A Tulsa and Triple-A Oklahoma City. DeLuca could see playing time against left-handed pitching with Thompson on the shelf, but he's more of a long-term play than one who is likely to provide fantasy fireworks in his first taste of MLB action.

JUNE 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Bumped up to Triple-A The Dodgers promoted DeLuca from Double-A Tulsa to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.

Impact Oklahoma City released outfielder Ben DeLuzio to clear a spot on the roster for DeLuca, who started in left field and went 0-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in his Triple-A debut in Tuesday's 4-3 win over Sugar Land. The 24-year-old DeLuca earned the bump up to Triple-A after leading Tulsa in OPS (.970) and slugging 10 home runs, placing him in a tie for second in the Texas League at the time of his promotion.

MAY 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to minors DeLuca was optioned Monday to minor-league camp by the Dodgers.

Impact DeLuca was rewarded with a 40-man roster spot in November after he blasted 25 homers and stole 17 bases with an .888 OPS for High-Great Lakes and Double-A Tulsa. The 24-year-old could be an option for the Dodgers this summer, especially if he produces in Triple-A the way he did in the lower levels.
