Yankees Alum Brett Gardner’s Son Miller Has Preliminary Cause of Death Revealed
The Los Angeles Dodgers are missing a teammate.
The day before the MLB team is set to return to the 2025 World Series to face off against the Toronto Blue Jays, they announced that their pitcher Alex Vesia is currently absent due to a private matter with his pregnant wife Kayla Vessia.
“It’s with a heavy heart that we share that Alex Vesia is away from the team as he and his wife Kayla navigate a deeply personal family matter,” the organization wrote in a statement shared to Instagram Oct. 23. “The entire Dodgers organization is sending our thoughts to the Vesia family, and we will provide an update at a later date.”
No further details about Alex’s absence were provided, and neither he nor his wife—who announced in April they were expecting a baby—have provided any updates of their own.
Amid the hiatus of one of their star pitchers, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts detailed how the team is attempting to pivot, given the fact that the team must submit a World Series roster by 10 am ET on the day of the first game, per ESPN.
