What Happened With Alex Vesia & His Family? Dodgers Pitcher’s ‘Personal Matter’ Explained

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Alex Vesia did not participate in the 2025 World Series against the Toronto Blue Jays due to a family-related leave. The Dodgers described his absence as a “personal matter” involving his wife Kayla.

“It is with a heavy heart that we share that Alex Vesia is away from the team as he and his wife, Kayla, navigate a deeply personal family matter. The entire Dodgers organization is sending our thoughts to the Vesia family, and we will provide an update at a later date.”

Despite the Blue Jays losing the series, they honored Alex by wearing his number 51 on their caps during Game 6 as a sign of respect.

Alex has not indicated any injury or illness affecting his play, and he has yet to publicly discuss his absence. Dodgers Manager Dave Roberts noted that the team expected Alex not to be on the World Series roster “unless something unforeseen happens.”
