The Dodgers reassigned Gorski to minor-league camp Monday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gorski reached the big leagues for the first time in 2025 and appeared in 15 games with the Pirates, but after being cut loose by Pittsburgh last July and then catching on with the Dodgers on a minor-league deal, he missed the rest of the season while recovering from a left hand injury. The 28-year-old first baseman didn't appear in any Cactus League games prior to being reassigned, so it's unclear if he's fully healthy at this point. Whenever he's deemed ready to play, Gorski will head to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Gorski (hand) signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Nearly two weeks after being released by the Pirates, Gorski will now join the Dodgers organization to finish up the final stages of a hand injury that has kept him sidelined since late May. The 27-year-old is expected to return sometime in mid-to-late August but isn't likely to contribute much for the big-league club.

The Pirates released Gorski (hand) on July 12.
EDGE Analysis
Pittsburgh opted to part ways with Gorski a few weeks after he was transferred to Triple-A Indianapolis' 60-day injured list June 19 due to a left hand injury, which he sustained during his final appearance for the affiliate May 23, according to Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. According to Hiles, Gorski didn't require surgery to address the injury, but since he wasn't expected to return to game action until at least mid-to-late August, the Pirates chose to release him. The 27-year-old made his MLB debut with Pittsburgh earlier this season, playing in 15 games while slashing .195/.214/.390 over 42 plate appearances.

The Pirates designated Gorski for assignment Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Gorski has been on the shelf with an undisclosed injury since May 23, and it's unclear when he'll be back in action. Friday's move opens up a spot for Yohan Ramirez on the 40-man roster.

Triple-A Indianapolis transferred Gorski from its 7-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Friday while he recovers from an undisclosed injury.
EDGE Analysis
Gorski hasn't played for Indianapolis since May 23, so his move to the 60-day IL ensures that he'll remain on the shelf through the All-Star break. Before getting shut down at Indianapolis, Gorski got the chance to make his big-league debut with the Pirates earlier this season. The 27-year-old slashed .195/.214/.390 with two home runs in 42 plate appearances for Pittsburgh before he was optioned to Triple-A on May 17.

The Pirates optioned Gorski to Triple-A Indianapolis on Saturday, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Spencer Horwitz (wrist) returning from the injured list Saturday, Gorski will be sent back to the minors in order to clear space on the active roster. The 27-year-old slashed .195/.214/.390 with two homers, four RBI and two runs scored across 42 plate appearances during his time in the big leagues.

Gorski went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Wednesday against the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Gorski was in the lineup rarely with Derek Shelton managing the Pirates, but he has started five of six games since Don Kelly took over. He's struck out nine times in 19 plate appearances in that span while collecting only four hits, though he did manage a two-run homer in the second inning, providing what proved to be the winning runs for Pittsburgh.

Gorski will start at first base and bat fifth in Sunday's game against Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Gorski will get his third consecutive start at first base and appears to have at least temporarily moved into a near-everyday role with Enmanuel Valdez (shoulder), Spencer Horwitz (wrist) and Endy Rodriguez (finger) all on the injured list. Horwitz could be activated during the upcoming week, so Gorski's run as a lineup regular might prove to be short-lived.

Gorski's contract was selected by the Pirates on Thursday, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gorski had an excellent spring training and was in contention for a roster spot. He's carried that performance over into the start of the Triple-A season, maintaining a 122 wRC+ across 77 plate appearances. In combination with the struggles of the recently optioned Jack Suwinski, Gorski will now get his first chance in the majors. He is starting at first base and hitting seventh Thursday against the Angels.

Gorski was reassigned Tuesday to the minor-league side of Pirates camp.
EDGE Analysis
Gorski posted an impressive .956 OPS with 24 home runs and 21 stolen bases in 81 games last summer in the minors, but he is 25 years old and has taken only two plate appearances above the Double-A level. The outfielder was 1-for-5 with three strikeouts through three Grapefruit League games this spring.
