Dodgers sign former Giants catcher Austin Wynns to MLB deal.
The Dodgers have signed catcher Austin Wynns to a major league deal and placed him on the active roster as catcher Will Smith heads to the 7-Day Concussion IL, retroactive to April 13. The Dodgers have transferred right-hander Alex Reyes to the 60-day IL to make room for Wynns on the 40-man roster. While Smith is on the shelf, Austin Barnes figures to get the lion’s share of starts behind the plate, with Wynns acting as the backup.
