The Dodgers have signed first baseman/outfielder Matt Gorski to a minor league deal, according to his transactions tracker at MLB.com. He’ll presumably report to Triple-A Oklahoma City at some point though his current health status is unknown.
Gorski, 27, got a brief big league stint with the Pirates earlier this year. He was optioned to Triple-A on May 17th. He was placed on the minor league injured list on May 25th with an undisclosed issue. On June 19th, he was transferred to the minor league 60-day IL.
On July 11th, the Pirates added Yohan Ramírez to their roster and Gorski was designated for assignment to open a 40-man spot. Injured players can’t be placed on outright waivers, so he was released, which allowed him to sign this deal with the Dodgers.
Gorski only hit .195/.214/.390 in the majors but in a small sample of 42 plate appearances. He has naturally put up more impressive numbers in the minors. Dating back to the start of 2024, he has 521 Triple-A plate appearances with 27 home runs, a .261/.319/.521 line and 112 wRC+. He also stole 17 bases, though he was caught nine times as well. Defensively, he has played first base and all three outfield positions.
The Dodgers have Freddie Freeman at first base and Shohei Ohtani in the designated hitter spot. Their outfield mix consists of Andy Pages, Teoscar Hernández, Michael Conforto, James Outman and Esteury Ruiz. Conforto and Outman aren’t performing well but the club may shake up the roster at the deadline.
Gorski is likely just depth and might not even be fully healthy at the moment, but there’s no such thing as a bad minor league deal. He burned his first option year here in 2025 but could still be optioned in two future seasons if he gets a 40-man roster spot down the line.
