Dodgers' Postseason Plans Hinge on Snell's Groin Health

Blake Snell exited after one inning with left groin tightness in a 6-2 loss to the Reds, casting doubt on his availability for the Dodgers’ postseason. With a history of groin issues, the team classifies the injury as tightness and will reassess with imaging before deciding on his next start. Los Angeles must balance upside in a deep rotation (including Skubal, Yamamoto, Glasnow) with contingency plans like Roki Sasaki as they push toward clinching the division and a first‑round bye. Snell hopes to make another regular-season appearance, but his health will largely dictate October rotations and bullpen strategy.

Dodgers Manage Snell Injury, Sasaki Rehab, and Chelsea Ownership Move

The Dodgers were dealt a scare when Blake Snell left his Cincinnati start with a left groin tightness that the club calls precautionary; he hopes to make another start before the regular season ends as L.A. pushes for a top-two seed and a playoff bye, with a rotation likely led by Yamamoto and Skubal and Snell serving as a potential third starter. Roki Sasaki has returned from a blister and is being assessed for his postseason role, with placement in the rotation or bullpen still undecided. In other news, Mark Walter and Todd Boehly sold their Chelsea FC stake to Clearlake Capital for about £950 million, a move Dodgers ownership says won’t affect payroll or the team’s status. Meanwhile, Wrobleski and Knack will start the next Dodgers game, with Miller optioned down as the club weighs weekend rotation plans around Glasnow, Skubal, and Yamamoto.

Dodgers Ride Muncy and Ohtani Power to 11-5 Win Over Rockies

Muncy and Shohei Ohtani powered an 11-5 Dodgers win over Colorado at Coors Field, with Ohtani homering twice and Muncy adding a big early blast as Freeman, Pages, and Betts chipped in. Blake Snell worked six solid innings and the bullpen held the lead, though Kyle Tucker’s late misplay and Edwin Diaz’s rocky closing added drama. The win keeps the Dodgers in the NL mix as they prepare for tomorrow’s Lauer vs Feltner matchup.

Dodgers Activate Blake Snell, Set Up Six-Man Rotation

Los Angeles reinstated Blake Snell from the 60-day IL and will start him tonight vs. the Royals, as the Dodgers commit to a six-man rotation to ease his return from elbow surgery. Blake Treinen was placed on the 60-day IL, and Snell’s comeback follows a NanoNeedle procedure after loose bodies were removed. The team, aiming to have Snell healthy for October, has endured a rough stretch but remains atop the NL West with hopes of keeping their postseason footing.

Dodgers’ Snell back on IL with elbow loose bodies, surgery looms

Dodgers left-hander Blake Snell was placed on the 15-day injured list with loose bodies in his left elbow after feeling discomfort while playing catch; surgery is likely and the timeline is unclear, potentially yielding a late July/early August return. The setback complicates a rotation already thin with Tyler Glasnow out, prompting the Dodgers to recall Charlie Barnes and consider bullpen days or a six-man rotation while they decide on next steps.

Dodgers Place Blake Snell on IL With Elbow Issue

The Dodgers placed left-hander Blake Snell back on the injured list with loose bodies in his throwing elbow, backdated to May 12, after a brief return from the IL in which he faced limited action. Charlie Barnes was recalled in a corresponding move. Snell had been activated May 9 following a shoulder fatigue stint and completed brief rehab starts before a late elbow issue was identified; there is no immediate surgery plan, though he previously had elbow surgery in 2019, and a return is expected before season’s end with timing still uncertain.

Dodgers Activate Blake Snell for Season Debut, Triggering Rotation Shakeup

The Los Angeles Dodgers will reinstate left-hander Blake Snell from the 15-day IL to start Saturday, marking his season debut after shoulder fatigue. Coming off a rehab assignment, Snell is expected to be limited to roughly 75 pitches, and his return prompts a rotation shakeup as the team weighs how to fit him in with Glasnow, Ohtani, Yamamoto, Sheehan, Wrobleski and Sasaki. The move also raises questions about Glasnow’s status, with possibilities ranging from IL placement to a skipped start.

Ohtani Skips WBC Pitching as Dodgers Plot Flexible Opening Day Rotation

Dodgers say Shohei Ohtani won’t pitch in the 2026 World Baseball Classic due to insurance constraints and will serve as a DH for Team Japan, with him still aiming to be ready to pitch by Opening Day. Blake Snell is taking a deliberate offseason approach to build strength after shoulder inflammation in 2024–25, with plans to be ready for Opening Day and backups like Sasaki or Emmet Sheehan ready if needed. Tommy Edman is recovering from ankle surgery, facing an uncertain Opening Day as he progresses from ligament repair and bone spur removal and hopes to return to form, though his speed and baserunning recovery have lagged. The Dodgers are weighing rotation depth, likely using more than five starters to cover potential injuries and workloads.
