In this story:

The Los Angeles Dodgers thrashed the Minnesota Twins, 12-3, on Tuesday and improved to 51-29 on the year.

Left-hander Justin Wrobleski completed seven innings of work, striking out three and allowing a pair of earned runs en route to his ninth win of the year. His ERA dropped to 2.71, good for the 10th-lowest in MLB among qualified starting pitchers.

The offense was clearly firing on all cylinders as LA had 17 hits, tying their most in 2026 thus far. After a 2-2 tie entering the third inning, the Dodgers put up three runs in the fourth and later hung five runs on the Twins in the ninth inning to add insult to injury.

Speaking of injuries, Dalton Rushing has a positive update, courtesty of manager Dave Roberts. After a foul tip was hit off of his mask on Monday, he cleared concussion protocol but was still held out of Tuesday's contest.

“From what I hear, he said he’s good to go,” Roberts said. “That doesn’t carry too much weight until I hear from the medical staff, but it is good to know that he said he’s good to go.”

As for Kyle Tucker and the back spasms that caused him to leave Monday's game, Roberts said he will keep the outfielder out for the remainder of the series in Minnesota. Friday's series opener against the San Diego Padres appears to be when Tucker will try to make his return.

“Ideally, he would swing the bat [Wednesday] and do some type of activity to go into the off day,” Roberts said, “but if he doesn’t, then we’ll have probably a tough decision on Friday.”

In other news, right-handed reliever Brock Stewart finally made his return to the mound on Tuesday after appearing in just two games this year due to various injuries.

He admitted that he is embarrassed by his barrage of injuries but looks to be back on the mound for the long run.
