Los Angeles Dodgers

Gavin Stone

SP

Stone was diagnosed with inflammation in his surgically repaired right shoulder during spring training and was shut down from throwing for several weeks. Tests confirmed that there's no structural damage in the shoulder, and the right-hander has since been cleared to begin a throwing program. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Wednesday -- the same day Stone was moved to the 60-day IL -- that the hurler is essentially going to need to ramp up as if he's restarting spring.

Jake Cousins

RP

The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for righty Jake Eder, who was acquired from the Nationals on Wednesday. Cousins is recovering from Tommy John surgery and will be sidelined until after the All-Star break.

Blake Snell

SP

Snell was limited to bullpen sessions during spring training due to left shoulder fatigue, prompting his placement on the 15-day injured list to open the season. He continues to progress in his recovery, and it looks like he'll start to face live hitters once the Dodgers return from their upcoming road trip that will conclude Wednesday, April 8 against the Blue Jays in a World Series rematch. Roberts noted to reporters that Snell is on track to make his 2026 debut at the end of May.

Enrique Hernandez

1B

Hernandez underwent left elbow surgery in mid-November and is currently on the 60-day IL. Manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that the utility man is progressing well and indicated that he would be "shocked" if Hernandez isn't ready to return when first eligible. Once he's activated, Hernandez isn't likely to be an everyday player, but he'll give the Dodgers positional versatility with his ability to play nearly everywhere in the infield and outfield.

Tommy Edman

2B

Edman is currently on the 10-day IL as he works his way back from the right ankle surgery he underwent in mid-November. Manager Dave Roberts had previously said the infielder/outfielder is likely to return in late May, though he indicated Saturday that there is a possibility Edman could be back sooner. When he does get back in action, Edman is slated to spend most of his time at second base, where he could start frequently.
