Segedin retired from professional baseball last year after battling ongoing complications in his recovery from November 2017 surgery on his right wrist, Pedro Moura of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Segedin appeared in 53 regular-season games at the big-league level between 2016 and 2017, slashing .226/.282/.355 with two home runs in 103 plate appearances with the Dodgers. Though he returned from the wrist surgery -- his second procedure of that same year to address the injury -- to join the Dodgers for spring training in 2018, he only logged 134 plate appearances at Triple-A Oklahoma City before being removed from the 40-man roster in late August. News of Segedin's retirement flew under the radar until the 30-year-old recently filed a lawsuit alleging negligence on the part of the Dodgers' hand consultant who performed his most recent surgery, Dr. Steven Shin. Though his playing career is now over, Segedin remains involved in baseball as a player information assistant in the Phillies organization.

Segedin is currently away from the team as he awaits the birth of his child. Once he becomes available again, he'll report to Oklahoma City. While Segedin could see occasional time with the Dodgers as a reserve option, he figures to spend most of his time at the Triple-A level this season. The 29-year-old slashed .320/.347/.515 over 25 games at Oklahoma City in 2017.

Segedin was called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday.

Segedin joins the Dodgers with the expansion of rosters coming into effect. The outfielder has missed most of the season to injury (wrist), but figures to serve as added depth in the outfield throughout September.

Segedin was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Just days after being activated from the 60-day disabled list, Segedin gets sent to Triple-A so the Dodgers can have room on their roster for first baseman Adrian Gonzalez. The move doesn't come as a surprise as some were suspecting him to stay at Triple-A after he was activated from the disabled list anyway.
