Landon Knack - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Sent to Oklahoma The Dodgers optioned Knack to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday.

Impact Knack was recalled Thursday and logged four shutout innings against Cincinnati. The 28-year-old will head back to Oklahoma, where he sports a 2.08 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 33:11 K:BB over 34.2 innings this season. His major league stint will come to an abrupt end with Edwin Diaz (neck) being activated from the 15-day injured list Friday.

Recalled from Triple-A The Dodgers recalled Knack from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday.

Impact Knack has allowed five earned runs in just 7.2 frames with the big club this season but has logged a 2.08 ERA and 33:11 K:BB over 34.2 innings with OKC. The right-hander will provide manager Dave Roberts with a fresh bullpen arm.

Promotion coming The Dodgers will recall Knack from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact Knack will come up from the minors to follow Justin Wrobleski as a bulk reliever during Thursday's game against the Reds. Knack has pitched to a 2.08 ERA and 1.17 WHIP over 34.2 innings at Triple-A this year but has given up five earned runs in just 7.2 frames with the Dodgers.

Sent back to Triple-A Knack was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Knack will return to Oklahoma City after being called up to the big-league roster Wednesday, collecting a save while tossing 2.2 scoreless innings in the team's 4-2 win over the Royals. The Dodgers selected the contract of right-handed reliever Jonathan Hernandez on Thursday, and Knack was the odd man out with the major-league club.

Collects save Wednesday Knack allowed two hits and struck out two without walking a batter over 2.2 scoreless innings to earn the save in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Royals.

Impact Knack threw 22 of 36 pitches for strikes in this outing. He was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City earlier in the day, though the long-relief assignment could lead to him getting optioned out again for a fresh arm as the Dodgers open up a big four-game series against the Brewers on Thursday. With a 5.87 ERA over 7.2 innings across three appearances, Knack is unlikely to see anything more than multi-inning relief assignments when in the majors.

Back with big club The Dodgers recalled Knack from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday.

Impact The move corresponds with the Dodgers sending right-hander Seth Halvorsen down to Triple-A. Knack opened the 2026 season on the injured list while recovering from an intercostal strain but was reinstated right before the All-Star break. He's operated out of the Dodgers' bullpen in each of his two major-league outings and figures to operate in a long-relief role.

Relegated to Triple-A The Dodgers optioned Knack to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.

Impact Knack has given up five runs in five innings since making his season debut July 11, so the Dodgers will send him down to Triple-A to get back on track. Charlie Barnes will come up from the minors to fill the resulting vacancy in the bullpen.

JULY 21 • ROTOWIRE

Works in long relief in 2026 debut Knack struck out two and allowed three earned runs on four hits and two walks across three innings in relief Saturday in the Dodgers' 9-2 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Impact After being reinstated from the 60-day injured list Saturday following a lengthy recovery from an intercostal strain, Knack was put to work right away in the Dodgers' penultimate game of the first half. With starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto getting chased from the contest after five innings, Knack mopped up in long relief, needing 60 pitches to record his nine outs. The right-hander made 19 starts at the big-league level over the previous two seasons, but he looks like he'll have to settle for a bullpen role unless another injury creates an opening in the Dodgers' six-man rotation.

JULY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Activated from injured list The Dodgers reinstated Knack (chest) from the 60-day injured list Saturday.

Impact Knack has been on the injured list since Opening Day due to an intercostal strain, but he's now been cleared to rejoin the Dodgers' pitching staff after giving up three runs in seven innings across three minor-league rehab outings. The 28-year-old righty has been used primarily as a starter throughout his career, but he'll most likely work as a long reliever while he eases his way back into big-league action. Kyle Hurt was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City to free up a spot for Knack on the active roster, and Charlie Barnes was DFA'd to clear a 40-man spot.

Third rehab start on tap Knack (intercostal) will make his third rehab start Sunday with Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Impact During his most recent outing Tuesday, Knack built up to 2.2 innings and 50 pitches (30 strikes) while striking out four batters and allowing no runs on one hit and one walk. He'll look to build up his pitch count a bit more Sunday and will likely require one more rehab start beyond that before potentially returning from the 60-day injured list coming out of the All-Star break. The Dodgers aren't expected to have a rotation spot available for Knack, but he could join the big club as a long reliever if he isn't optioned to Triple-A upon his activation from the IL.
