The Los Angeles Dodgers are grappling with injuries to key pitchers Blake Snell and Blake Treinen, both currently on the 15-day injured list. Snell's shoulder inflammation and Treinen's forearm strain have them completely shut down from baseball activities. Manager Dave Roberts emphasized the importance of a cautious approach to ensure long-term health and performance, as both pitchers will only return after full recovery. The Dodgers are committed to taking their time, knowing they will need both arms for the second half of the season.
"They're laying low, not playing catch until they hear otherwise," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said.
"Certainly pain-free is one thing, and just building up arm strength. They've actually both been through this, so there's a point of reference for both those guys."
"I think with Blake (Treinen), just appreciating the fact that we're going to need him in the second half and beyond, we have time so take the time that way when he gets back, we can just go from there and not look back."
"I think Blake Snell is in that similar kind of bucket."
