Dodgers To Place Blake Snell On Injured List
MLB Trade Rumors • • sports
Key Points:
- The Dodgers have placed left-hander Blake Snell back on the injured list due to "loose bodies" in his throwing elbow, with the move retroactive to May 12th.
- Charlie Barnes has been recalled to the active roster in a corresponding move.
- Snell was recently activated on May 9th after missing the first month of the season with left shoulder fatigue but struggled in his only Major League start before returning to the injured list.
- The loose bodies in Snell's elbow were discovered after he felt discomfort during a catch session, and there is currently no definitive plan on whether surgery will be required.
- Snell previously had arthroscopic surgery on the same elbow in 2019, missing six weeks, but the Dodgers expect him to return before the end of the season.
