Dodgers' Latest Comments Leave Fans More Worried About Alex Vesia, Wife Kayla
The Vesias are going through something heartbreaking.
parade.comHere’s the latest on Alex Vesia I can share from recent, publicly reported updates:
- Vesia was away from the Dodgers for a personal family matter during the 2025 World Series, with no public details given at the time. The team indicated he would be away for private reasons, and he did not join the World Series roster.[3][5]
- As of May 2026, reports note that he remained with the Dodgers and was expected to resume a high-leverage setup role, following a 2025 season in which he posted a 3.02 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, and 80 strikeouts against 22 walks in 59.2 innings over 68 regular-season appearances, including five saves and 26 holds.[2]
- There have been ongoing public mentions of his wife Kayla and private family matters surrounding his absence in late 2025; recent public-facing content has focused on his emotional statements and the larger context of his family’s situation rather than specific medical or personal details.[4][6]
