The Los Angeles Dodgers placed left-hander Jack Dreyer on the 15-day injured list Sunday with left shoulder discomfort, while right-handers Paul Gervase and Chayce McDermott were recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City.

In another pitching move, the Dodgers optioned left-hander Charlie Barnes to Triple-A.

Dreyer, 27, is tied for the Dodgers' lead in appearances with left-hander Tanner Scott at 20. The second-year pitcher is 2-1 with a 2.08 ERA and has 24 strikeouts in 21 2/3 innings.

In his two seasons, Dreyer is 5-3 with a 2.76 ERA in 87 appearances (five starts) and did not allow a run in four appearances in last year's postseason, including two appearances in the World Series against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Gervase, 25, went three innings in his lone appearance for the Dodgers this season on May 9 and allowed one run.

McDermott, 27, is set to make his Dodgers debut after he was acquired from the Baltimore Orioles on April 16 for minor league right-hander Axel Perez. He had a 12.79 ERA in five appearances with the Orioles from 2024-25.

Barnes, 30, has made two scoreless relief appearances for Los Angeles this season, including a one-inning outing Saturday against the Los Angeles Angels.
