The Dodgers have designated left-hander Anthony Banda for assignment to make room for catcher Ben Rortvedt, a move previously reported. Banda, a reliable member of the bullpen, saw declining performance in 2025, with a rise in walk rate and a drop in strikeouts, culminating in poor playoff results. With the return of other left-handed options and Banda out of options, the Dodgers may hope to retain him through waivers. His previous success might attract interest from teams needing bullpen help.
