PHOENIX — The Dodgers are continuing cautiously with left-hander Blake Snell, who continues to be feeling discomfort in his throwing shoulder and didn’t resume taking part in catch through the staff’s 10-game street journey, as was beforehand anticipated.
Each Snell and right-hander Tyler Glasnow, who can also be on the 15-day injured listing with shoulder irritation, will meet with staff medical doctors on Monday for a check-in. Supervisor Dave Roberts stated the staff felt it was greatest if Snell noticed a physician earlier than resuming throwing.
Glasnow started taking part in catch over the weekend. Roberts stated there aren’t any indications that Glasnow is feeling any residual plain in his throwing shoulder.
When Snell was positioned on the 15-day IL on April 6, the Dodgers have been optimistic that he would miss minimal time. The extent of concern has modified some, nevertheless it’s unclear to what extent.

Snell was initially shut down from throwing for per week when he went on the IL, after which he resumed taking part in catch. He progressed to throwing a bullpen session and had been set for one more when the Dodgers have been in Chicago on April 23, however plans for that second session on the mound have been scrapped when he felt poorly after taking part in catch the day earlier than.
Since then, Snell has gotten a pain-killing injection in his shoulder. He traveled with the Dodgers on their street journey via Atlanta, Miami and Phoenix, with the expectation that he would start taking part in catch through the three-game collection at loanDepot park. Snell didn’t throw then, and the rationale given on the time was that he was feeling below the climate.
