It’s the first trip to the big leagues for the 28-year-old outfielder. Dean had been hitting .274/.370/.426 with six long balls, 31 RBI and 25 stolen bases across 311 plate appearances at the Triple-A level. Expect him to see most of his action as a pinch-runner or defensive replacement with the Dodgers.

The Dodgers have already optioned Esteury Ruiz to Triple-A Oklahoma City to clear a spot on the club’s active roster for Dean’s arrival. It’s the first trip to the big leagues for the 28-year-old outfielder. He has done a nice job at the Triple-A level this season, slashing .274/.370/.426 with six homers, 31 RBI and 25 stolen bases in 311 plate appearances. Expect him to be used in a similar role to Ruiz, primarily as a late-inning defensive replacement and pinch-runner.
