Fails to record out Sunday
Diaz entered in the eighth inning and allowed three runs on three hits and a walk without recording an out in Sunday's loss to the Rockies.
Análise
Diaz made his first appearance since April 10, with the Dodgers trailing in the eighth inning, and failed to record an out as the Rockies extended their lead. The right-hander didn't allow hard contact, with no exit velocities above 88.0 mph, but his own velocity was down, as the 32-year-old's fastball averaged 95.4 mph Sunday after sitting at 97.3 mph last regular season. The loss in fastball velocity has been a prominent storyline in the first few weeks of the season, though there has been no indication of an injury. With a 10.50 ERA, 2.33 WHIP and four saves across six innings in 2026, Diaz's usage, velocity and effectiveness will be worth monitoring moving forward.

Passed over for save chance Tuesday
Diaz threw a bullpen session Tuesday but didn't get called upon for a save opportunity in the Dodgers' 2-1 win over the Mets. His status is set to re-evaluated before Wednesday's contest, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Neither the Dodgers nor Diaz have indicated that he's hurt, and manager Dave Roberts said Monday that he expects the reliever to be available during the current series versus New York. However, the team opted to have the veteran closer throw a bullpen session Tuesday, which essentially ruled him out from being able to pitch during the contest later that evening. Diaz has displayed decreased velocity early in the campaign, though he's noted that his velocity has often been down early in previous seasons before eventually ticking back up. The missed opportunity for a save Tuesday is frustrating for fantasy managers who invested heavily in Diaz, but for now, the best course of action seems to be to stick with the reliever with the expectation that he'll get back to closing sooner rather than later.

Will pitch during Mets series
Manager Dave Roberts stated Monday that he expects Diaz to pitch during Los Angeles' three-game series against the Mets, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Diaz has passed manual testing conducted by LA's training staff to rule out any injuries, and the team isn't concerned about the flamethrower's health despite the fact that he didn't feel quite right after Friday's appearance. Diaz has since noted that he's feeling "great", per Jack Harris of the California Post, and the expectation is that he'll be available to pitch during the team's three-game series against New York if there's a save chance.
