Hatcher (0-1) allowed two earned runs on a hit and a walk in Wednesday's 10-8 loss to the Angels. He also recorded a strikeout and was charged with his first blown save.

EDGE Analysis

The one hit he gave up made all the difference, as Hatcher surrendered a 380-foot shot to Cliff Pennington with the bases jammed, giving the Angels a 10-8 lead that they wouldn't relinquish. The 32-year-old right-hander has given up three earned runs in the one inning encompassing his last two appearances, a stretch that's caused his ERA to balloon from 1.50 to 5.14.

Hatcher notched his first hold in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Astros, allowing two hits and recording a strikeout over one-third of an inning.

EDGE Analysis

While it wasn't exactly smooth, Hatcher was able to protect the one-run lead he inherited when taking over for starter Jharel Cotton with one on in the seventh. After surrendering a single to Jake Marisnick, the 32-year-old right-hander got a huge out by striking out George Springer to snuff out the threat. Hatcher now has three straight scoreless outings since being acquired from the Dodgers on Aug. 15, and if early usage is any indication, he could see plenty of work for the balance of the campaign.

Hatcher was traded to the Athletics on Tuesday for international bonus pool money.

EDGE Analysis

Hatcher, who has compiled a 4.66 ERA and 43:12 K:BB through 36.2 innings this season, will likely slot into a middle relief role for Oakland, though he could work his way into higher-leverage situations if he pitches well.

Hatcher (shoulder) was activated from the 10-day disabled list Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

After spending over seven weeks on the disabled list with right shoulder inflammation, Hatcher is set to rejoin the Dodgers' bullpen where he'll look to improve upon his 4.66 ERA moving forward. In a corresponding move, Kyle Farmer was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Hatcher (shoulder) will be activated from the disabled list Sunday, Bill Shaikin of The Los Angeles TImes reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Dodgers will be getting some bullpen depth back with Hatcher returning from a shoulder injury. Although Hatcher is a right-hander, he's been particularly effective against lefties this season, holding them to a .224 batting average. The Dodgers will announce a corresponding move when Hatcher is officially activated Sunday.

Hatcher (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday, Eric Stephen of TrueBlueLA.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hatcher has been on the shelf since late June, but it appears that his ailing shoulder is getting back to normal now that he's completed a couple rehab outings with the Dodgers' rookie-league affiliate in the Arizona League. If all goes well during his time in OKC, the right-hander could get back to the big-league bullpen in the next week or two. Prior to getting injured, Hatcher held a 4.66 ERA and a 10.6 K/9 in 36.2 innings of relief.

Hatcher received a cortisone injection for his shoulder earlier this week, Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hatcher has been dealing with thoracic inflammation for over two weeks now after landing on the DL on June 23. The 32-year-old had been struggling for most of the past two months, posting a 5.09 ERA since the beginning of May, with even worse numbers in June alone. He will likely embark on a rehab assignment following the All-Star break before returning to the big-league club.

Hatcher was placed on the 10-day disabled list Friday with thoracic inflammation in his right shoulder.

EDGE Analysis

Hatcher has had a terrible June, as he has an 8.31 ERA and has issued seven walks and two home runs in just 8.2 innings. Shoulder issues would go a long way towards explaining those struggles. It's unclear when he will be able to return, and the club has not issued a timetable.

Hatcher was charged with three earned runs over 1.1 innings Saturday, raising his season ERA to 4.30 in the process.

EDGE Analysis

Hatcher cruised through his first inning of relief, but he walked three batters in the seventh and watched all three baserunners cross the plate after he was lifted from the game. The 32-year-old has a strong 4.2 K/BB ratio through 29.1 innings, but his 1.5 HR/9 is too high to be relied upon for standard fantasy purposes.

Hatcher fired a pair of scoreless innings while striking out three in Thursday's 10-7 loss to the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

The 32-year-old is looking more like the pitcher he was in his first season with Dodgers, as opposed to the five-plus ERA version we saw last year. Hatcher's impressive 11.0 K/9 compliments his 3.00 ERA well, but he won't provide much fantasy value so long as he remains in middle relief.
