It’s hard to stray away from the successes that the Los Angeles Dodgers have been able to put together recently.
With a 19-10 record, the Dodgers were able to move on from a pinch-hit grand slam by Marlins’ outfielder Dane Myers that tied last night’s matchup.
In extra innings, Tommy Edman hit a game-winning single in the bottom of the 10th that would become Edman’s first walk-off hit in his short time spent in Los Angeles.
With all of this success, LA’s injuries in the pitching rotation has been a huge story in baseball.
Dodgers’ starting pitcher Blake Snell hasn’t pitched since the beginning of April. He’s been dealing with shoulder inflammation since his last start on April 2.
Update on Blake Snell injury
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters over the weekend that there were “no new findings” in the MRI Blake Snell received, but he could receive an injection in the shoulder to reduce swelling.
Roberts followed up on that information on Monday, confirming that Snell received the injection and there is no set timetable for the two-time Cy Young winner’s return.

The news is unfortunate, especially with this being the first year that Snell is with the Dodgers.
He signed a five-year, $182 million contract with the team back in November after coming off a 2024 season where he finished with a 3.12 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and a record of 5-3 in 104 innings pitched with the San Francisco Giants.
Snell has been one of the best aces in baseball since winning his first Cy Young award in 2018 and has shown his dominance for three other franchises before joining Los Angeles for the 2025 season.
Although there is no set time for Snell to return, the Dodgers are fortunate that the injury isn’t worse and expect him to be back sometime within the 2025 season.
