"Dodgers Make Surprising Roster Moves: Lamet DFA'd, Varland Recalled"

Lamet's recent performance has been underwhelming, and the Dodgers are taking a risk by potentially losing him on DFA waivers in order to add Varland to the roster. Lamet has struggled with injuries and control issues over the past few years, and his time with the Dodgers has been one of his better stretches in recent times.

Brewers Cut Ties with Pitcher Gus Varland.

The Milwaukee Brewers have designated right-hander Gus Varland for assignment and replaced him with righty J.B. Bukauskas. Varland was selected from the Dodgers in the most recent Rule 5 draft and made six appearances with a 2.70 ERA before being placed on the 15-day injured list with a right hand contusion.

Brewers announce opening day roster with exciting prospects.

Gus Varland, a Rule 5 draft pick from the Los Angeles Dodgers, has made the Milwaukee Brewers roster after an impressive spring training performance. Varland had never pitched above Double-A and had a 5.97 ERA over the past two seasons, but he struck out 17 of the 35 batters he faced in Cactus League play while flashing a fastball that reached 97 mph and a wipeout slider. As a Rule 5 pick, Varland must remain on the active roster all season, giving the Brewers less roster flexibility while contending for a playoff spot.
