Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Dylan Dodd, LHP for the Atlanta Braves, was placed on the injured list in early May 2026 with left thoracic spine inflammation/oblique strain. He began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Gwinnett on May 5th and was successfully reinstated from the injured list on May 19th after completing a three-appearance rehab stint. Prior to the injury, Dodd had appeared in two games, allowing one earned run with four strikeouts over four innings. He is expected to serve as a middle reliever and provide length out of the bullpen alongside other left-handed options for the Braves' bullpen.
