The Los Angeles Dodgers are moving on from a backup catcher and instead strengthening the bullpen.
The team on Monday afternoon announced that catcher Chuckie Robinson is being designated for **** ignment, while right handed pitcher Carlos Duran is being placed on the 40-man roster.
The move comes the same day that reliever Evan Phillips is being activated from the injured list and another righty, Paul Gervase, is being optioned.
Robinson was brought up to the big leagues due to the ongoing injury recovery of starting catcher Will Smith.
Though Dalton Rushing has performed well in the backup role, his inconsistencies sometimes led to frustrations, including with superstar Shohei Ohtani.
