Dodgers' Chris Hatcher: Transferred to 60-day DL
Hatcher (oblique) was transferred to the 60-day DL on Thursday, SportsNetLA's Alanna Rizzo reports.
Analysis:
He last pitched Tuesday, so the earliest he could return would be Sept. 18, with 14 games left in the season, so it's possible his season is over. Hatcher came into the year with peripherals that suggested he could be a solid late-inning arm for the club, but that never materialized, as his K-rate dipped and his walk rate spiked. His ERA currently sits at 5.53 with an unsightly 1.50 WHIP.
