The Los Angeles Dodgers reinstated Kiké Hernández from the 60-day injured list and designated Santiago Espinal for assignment to clear a roster spot. Hernández returns on a one-year, $4.5 million contract after elbow surgery, offering versatility and a chance to rebound after a down offensive stretch. Espinal, who joined on a minor deal and appeared in 26 games this spring, now enters DFA waivers; a trade could occur, or he could reject an outright assignment if no deal materializes given his service time.
