McKinstry was added to the roster for Wednesday's NL Wild Card Game against the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
McKinstry spent nearly a month at Triple-A Oklahoma City to close out the regular season, and he slashed .286/.356/.571 with four homers, 18 runs, 13 RBI and three stolen bases across 20 appearances in the minors. He'll likely be available off the bench in Wednesday's playoff matchup.

McKinstry was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
He has been up and down between the majors and Triple-A a couple times over the month, but only has five MLB at-bats since July 27. Steven Souza's contract was selected in a corresponding move.

McKinstry was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
McKinstry was sent down in mid-August and made 10 appearances with the Triple-A club since then. He slashed .295/.395/.514 with two home runs, a triple, seven runs and five RBI during his minor-league stint but will now rejoin the Dodgers to serve as utility depth.

McKinstry was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
McKinstry was called up Saturday, but he'll return to the minors after left-hander Darien Nunez (undisclosed) was reinstated from the injured list Sunday. The 26-year-old has gone 2-for-17 with a homer, five runs, three RBI and four walks across five minor-league games since the start of August.

The Dodgers are recalling McKinstry from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old has been with the Dodgers' taxi squad but will now be active with the big-league club. McKinstry figures to get some playing time in right field while Mookie Betts (hip) is on the injured list.

McKinstry was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old has played a significant role at times for Los Angeles this year, but he'll head to the minors Sunday with Mookie Betts (hip) returning from the injured list. Corey Seager also returned from the shelf this week and Trea Turner (COVID-19) is poised to join the team relatively soon after being acquired from the Nationals, so McKinstry is unlikely to have more than a bench role if he does rejoin the big-league roster down the stretch.

McKinstry isn't starting Thursday's game against the Giants, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
McKinstry was initially listed as the starting right fielder for Thursday's contest, but the Dodgers issued a corrected lineup with Billy McKinney starting in right field and batting seventh. It wouldn't be surprising to see the 26-year-old McKinstry available off the bench Thursday.

McKinstry will start at second base and bat seventh Sunday against the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
With Gavin Lux (hamstring) on the injured list, Max Muncy (personal) on the paternity list and Cody Bellinger (hamstring) and Mookie Betts (hip) considered day-to-day with injuries, McKinstry has been able to hold down a near-everyday role for the past week. He'll pick up his sixth start in eight games Sunday, manning the keystone while Chris Taylor shifts over to the left side of the infield to cover Lux's spot at shortstop.

McKinstry went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Los Angeles' 22-1 thrashing of Arizona on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
McKinstry entered for Max Muncy in the fifth and homered in the seventh to extend the Dodgers' lead to 15-0. The infielder is now slashing .248/.298/.465 in 48 games.
