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

EDGE Analysis

Knack will join the active roster for the final game of the regular season Sunday in Seattle after lefty Andrew Heaney was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move. The 27-year-old right-hander has appeared in nine games for the Dodgers in 2025, making seven starts and posting a 5.12 ERA and a 1.47 WHIP across 38.2 innings.

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

EDGE Analysis

Knack had made six consecutive turns through the Dodgers rotation, posting a 4.50 ERA and a 28:12 K:BB over 30 innings, but he'll yield his spot to Justin Wrobleski. In four appearances with Oklahoma City this season, Knack logged a 3.98 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP across 20.1 innings.

Knack worked in just 3.1 innings Thursday, allowing four runs on four hits and five walks while striking out one during a 6-5 win against the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

It was a tough outing for a pitcher who looked like he was turning a corner after back-to-back starts of six innings allowing just one earned run. Of Knack's 86 pitches Friday, 40 of them were balls, leading to a season-high five walks in the game. He also surrendered a season-high three home runs though all three came with no outs. That's a pattern that has continued over the 27-year-old's last five starts: the home run ball. Knack has surrendered nine home runs over that stretch, partially leading to his 5.12 ERA on the season. The right-hander is scheduled to make his next start on the road at San Diego.

Knack (3-2) earned the win over the Yankees on Saturday, allowing one run on five hits and three walks while striking out six batters over six innings.

EDGE Analysis

Knack had the pressure of pitching on a national stage assuaged early Saturday, as the Dodgers put up four runs in the first inning and six more in the second to hand the right-hander a big lead. The 27-year-old hurler responded with a sharp six frames, and the only run he allowed came on a solo homer by Aaron Judge in the fourth inning. Knack notched a quality start for a second straight outing, and he's allowed a total of two earned runs while posting an 11:3 K:BB over 12 innings during that span. He may not stick in the Dodgers' rotation once the team's bevy of injured starters begin to return, but for now he's lined up to make his next start on the road against the Cardinals.

Knack (2-2) took the loss in Sunday's contest against the Mets. He yielded three runs (one earned) on four hits and no walks over six innings with five strikeouts.

EDGE Analysis

The Los Angeles right-hander secured his first quality start of the season with this 91-pitch performance in Queens. After allowing two unearned runs on a Pete Alonso homer in the opening frame, Knack handcuffed the Mets across the next five innings, allowing just one run on three hits. With this effort, Knack lowered his season ERA from 6.17 to 5.22 across 29.1 innings. The 27-year-old should continue to stick in the Dodgers rotation either as a starter or bulk reliever. He currently lines up for a difficult test in his next appearance, scheduled to be against the Yankees at home next weekend.

Knack allowed four runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three over five innings of relief Monday versus the Diamondbacks. He did not factor in the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Jack Dreyer was tagged for three runs over the first two innings, and Knack wasn't any better when he took over for the third. All four runs were scored in that frame, as Knack yielded two-run homers to Lourdes Gurriel and Gabriel Moreno before settling in. Knack still finished with 106 pitches (68 strikes), which helped spare the Dodgers' bullpen in the loss. Knack is struggling to put it together in his second big-league season, posting a 6.17 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 23:10 K:BB across 23.1 innings. With none of the Dodgers' injured starting pitchers close to a return, expect Knack to make another appearance over the weekend versus the Mets, though it remains to be seen if he'll start or follow an opener again.

Knack will be used in bulk relief Monday versus the Diamondbacks, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jack Dreyer is slated to serve as an opener before turning things over to Knack. The 27-year-old Knack allowed five runs over 4.2 innings against the Athletics his last time out but struck out eight while walking only one.

Knack is likely to serve as the Dodgers' fifth starter in the short term, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Dodgers' rotation has been consistently shuffled early this season, and that continued with Roki Sasaki (shoulder) being placed on the injured list and Clayton Kershaw (toe) nearing activation. Those moves would still leave them one starter short, and Knack appears to be the preferred option over the likes of Ben Casparius and Matt Sauer. Knack has a 5.89 ERA and 1.53 WHIP with a more impressive 20:8 K:BB across 18.1 innings this season.

Knack (2-1) allowed five runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out eight over 4.2 innings to take the loss Tuesday versus the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Knack was taken deep twice by Jacob Wilson in this contest, and that ended up being more than enough to stick the right-hander with his first loss of the year. He's posted a 5.89 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 20:8 K:BB across 18.1 innings over five appearances (four starts) in the majors. The strikeout totals are tantalizing, but he'll need to improve his run prevention to earn widespread interest in fantasy. Knack could have been at risk of losing his place in the Dodgers' six-man rotation when Clayton Kershaw (toe) returns to action Saturday, but Roki Sasaki (shoulder) landed on the injured list Tuesday, so Knack's role should be safe for now. Knack is tentatively projected for a home start versus the Diamondbacks next week.

Knack is listed as the Dodgers' starting pitcher for Tuesday's game against the Athletics in Los Angeles.

EDGE Analysis

Clayton Kershaw (toe) is poised to return from the 60-day injured list Sunday, but the Dodgers are expected to keep a six-man rotation intact this week. With Ben Casparius returning to a relief role over the weekend, Knack will end up sticking around as the Dodgers' sixth starter after an impressive return to the big leagues against the Marlins this past Wednesday, when he struck out five over five scoreless frames. Another strong showing against the Athletics would likely put Knack in position to maintain a starting role until one of Tyler Glasnow (shoulder) or Blake Snell (shoulder) return from the IL or until Shohei Ohtani is deemed ready to pitch in games.
