Who Is Dodgers Pitcher Alex Vesia's Pregnant Wife? Meet Kayla Vesia

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Alex Vesia has established himself as a critical piece to his team’s bullpen, and his wife, Kayla Vesia, has been by his side the entire way.

In October 2025, however, Alex was forced to step away from the team on the eve of the 2025 World Series against the Toronto Blue Jays as he and Kayla — who announced her pregnancy with baby No. 1 in April 2025 — address a “family matter,” the Dodgers announced.

“It’s 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 team posted via Instagram. “The entire Dodgers organization is sending our thoughts to the Vesia family and we will provide an update at a later date.”

Manager Dave Roberts told the media that he considered Alex “day-to-day” but was placing no expectations on his trusted southpaw. The team left him off their World Series roster.
