The Dodgers needed a roster spot today to activate Carlos Monasterios from the disabled list, but the move made came as a surprise.
Ronald Belisario was placed on the restricted list for “personal reasons” to make room for Monasterios on the roster. No further details are known at this time.
Belisario started the season on the restricted list when he showed up to training camp 35 days late, battling work visa issues which he blamed on his 2009 arrest for driving under the influence.
