The Dodgers claimed right-handed pitcher Layne Somsen off waivers and transferred right-hander Chin-hui Tsao (right triceps strain) to the 60-day disabled list today.

Somsen, 27, appeared in two games with Cincinnati this season (5 ER/2 ⅓ innings) in his first big league action and has combined to go 1-0 with a 1.44 ERA, a .149 opponents’ batting average and a 1.00 WHIP in 14 minor league appearances this year at Triple-A with the Reds’ and Yankees’ affiliates. The Dodgers will be his third organization of 2016.

Somsen opening the season with the Reds’ organization before being claimed by the Yankees on May 24.

The South Dakota native has gone 10-5 with a 2.42 ERA in 90 games (seven starts) in four minor league seasons, limiting opposing hitters to a .208 batting average and striking out 193 in 189 ⅔ innings. Somsen was originally selected by the Reds in the 22nd round of the 2013 First-Year Player Draft out of South Dakota State.
