Blake Snell's Plan for Remainder of Spring Training
- Blake Snell arrived at spring training with a delayed throwing program due to offseason shoulder inflammation.
- Dodgers expect Snell to miss Opening Day, with a mound workout still weeks away.
- If he progresses, Snell could start a rehab assignment in April and join the club in May or June.
- Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Tyler Glasnow, and Shohei Ohtani are the likely Opening Day locks for Los Angeles.
- Roki Sasaki could join the group if his spring goes well, keeping rotation options open.
- Emmet Sheehan may re-enter the rotation picture after recovering from illness.
- If needed, the team is stretching out Justin Wrobleski, Gavin Stone, or River Ryan to be ready.
- The Dodgers plan to avoid rushing Snell due to last season’s shoulder inflammation and limited innings.
- Snell threw 61.1 innings last season, the fewest in a full season for him.
- The Dodgers’ rotation competition includes reserves who may fill in if Snell remains out.
