In addition to Justin Ruggiano, the Dodgers on Monday also reacquired minor-league outfielder Chris Heisey, in exchange for a player to be named later or cash considerations.
Both players are right-handed bats that can give the Dodgers depth in the outfield, given the recent injuries to Yasiel Puig and Kiké Hernandez. Though neither is on the 40-man roster at this particular moment, both are postseason-eligible.
Heisey had been picked up by Toronto after being designated for assignment July 30 by the Dodgers. He has a .769 OPS in Triple-A this season, and also went 4 for 26 with eight walks in 17 games as a Dodger.
