Edgardo Luis Henriquez (born June 24, 2002) is a Venezuelan professional baseball pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball (MLB).

Career

Henriquez signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers as an international free agent on September 25, 2018. He made his professional debut in 2019 with the Dominican Summer League Dodgers.[1] He did not pitch for a team in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[2]

Henriquez played for the Arizona Complex League Dodgers and Rancho Cucamonga Quakes in 2021 (4.93 ERA in 34+2⁄3 innings over 13 games) and remained with Rancho Cucamonga in 2022 (4.54 ERA in 35+2⁄3 innings over 14 games).[1] He missed the 2023 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery.[3]

Henriquez returned from the injury in 2024 to pitch for Rancho Cucamonga (five games), Great Lakes Loons (eight games), Tulsa Drillers (16 games) and Oklahoma City Baseball Club (14 games).[4] Between the four levels, he had a 2.72 ERA in 53 innings with 88 strikeouts.[1]

Henriquez was promoted to the major leagues and made his MLB debut with one inning of relief against the San Diego Padres on September 24, 2024.[5] He struck out the first batter he faced, Donovan Solano.[6] Henriquez pitched in 3+1⁄3 innings over three games, and allowed one earned run while striking out five.[7] He also pitched in five innings in the postseason, one in the Division Series and four in the National League Championship Series, allowing four earned runs on eight hits.[7] He did not make the roster for the World Series.[8]

Henriquez suffered an injury to his foot in spring training and began the 2025 season on the injured list;[9] he was transferred to the 60-day injured list on April 18.[10] On June 29, he was activated from the injured list and optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City.[11]
