Los Angeles Dodgers left Blake Snell He expects to be outside for two weeks while recovering from shoulder inflammation.

Snell, who agreed to a five -year contract with Los Angeles in November in the amount of $ 182 million, said the shoulder edition was retained for three weeks. The CY Young double winner had a MRI that returned clean, and Sunday was placed on the 10-day il.

“I thought I could get through it,” Snell said. “But when I got to Philly, he played for a long time, he caught, tried to throw him away. I just couldn’t. That’s what it was. Hope it had been a few weeks and I came back and ready to leave.”

The World Series champions opened a series of three games in Washington on Monday night. Manager Dave Roberts said he’s left back Justin Wrobe It is lined up for Snell’s place in rotation, and will perform on Tuesday night.

“Putting Blake on IL is certainly not ideal,” Roberts said. “I still feel really good in our Pitching depth. I just hope it’s very benign and not waiting too long from returning.”

Dodgers left back Clayton Kershaw He had a Bullpena session on Monday while nurturing his left -wing injury. The three -time CY Young Award winner did not go into the Great League game from August 30th.

“It’s always an honor,” Kershaw said. “I never want to say no such types of opportunities. I didn’t have much to do with October, he was a bit clumsy, but at the same time (to have) someone from the outside who did not play so he could point out some of the things this group did was really cool.”

37-year-old Kershaw thinks he will face the strikes in Arizona on Thursday, staying scheduled for two weeks.

“It’s a kind of strange needle for a thread because my physically my hand is ready to leave,” Kershaw said. “I’m ready. But my toe is not there yet. So, whenever my toe is strong enough to put me there, I want to be ready.”
