Vesia (ribs) was added to the Dodgers' World Series roster Friday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports. Vesia was left off the NLCS roster because of a rib cage injury, but he threw a successful simulated game Wednesday which convinced the Dodgers he was healthy enough to return. The left-hander made three scoreless relief appearances during the NLDS.

Vesia (ribs) threw 15 pitches against live hitters in a simulated situation Wednesday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

The reliever noted that his fastball may have been down a bit, but added that he will be ready to go Friday for Game 1 of the World Series against the Yankees. The left-hander was left off the roster for the NLCS due to the injury but could return for the Fall Classic.

Vesia (ribs) will throw against hitters Tuesday or Wednesday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports. Vesia has been dealing with a rib cage injury since his early departure from Game 5 of the NLDS, but he appears to be trending in the right direction. How he feels following his upcoming throwing session will likely determine whether he is included on the Dodgers' roster for the World Series -- a decision that is expected to be made as late as possible.

Vesia (ribs) isn't included on Los Angeles' NLCS roster, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports. Vesia exited Game 5 of the NLDS against the Padres due to a rib cage injury, and the issue is going to prevent him from playing during the National League Championship Series. His absence could be significant for the Dodgers, as Vesia was the team's top left-handed bullpen option during the campaign, posting a 1.76 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 87:33 K:BB over 66.1 innings while tallying five saves and 14 holds. Righty reliever Brent Honeywell (finger) is replacing Vesia on the roster for the NLCS, per Toribio. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that Vesia could return if the team advances to the World Series.

Vesia (ribs) is unlikely to be available for the NLCS against the Mets, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports. Vesia left Game 5 of the NLDS with an injury that has since been clarified as a rib cage issue. Manager Dave Roberts added that he hopes to have Vesia back if the Dodgers advance to the World Series, but for now, the team will be without one of its best left-handed relievers.
