LOS ANGELES ― Miguel Vargas’ parents were able to attend their son’s major league debut in person in San Francisco, as well as the ensuing home games at Dodger Stadium earlier this month. When his father, Lazaro, spoke to Dodgers special assistant Jose Vizcaino afterward, he was beaming about his son’s first hit.
“For a young player to come in here essentially in a pennant race, to handle himself like that, is telling.” Outfielders Trayce Thompson and Joey Gallo were not midseason call-ups, but each made a similar impression within their first week of being acquired in separate trades. “Not to take away anything from anyone we had, but if you look at the options on the position-player side, the pitching side as far as the ’pen, the floor has been raised considerably,” Roberts said. “Right now, Miggy’s not on the roster, but knowing we have someone like that if we need someone to pull from, is encouraging for all of us.”
