Brock Stewart underwent end-of-season shoulder surgery

7:35 pm: GM Brandon Gomes said tonight (transmitted by Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times), it’s a debridement technique. While he is unlikely to prepare for opening day, the Dodgers hope he will be back sometime in the first half of the 2026 season.
6:47 pm: Dodgers Relief Brock Stewart Manager Dave Roberts told LA Beats (including Fabian Ardaya of Track and Field). Rights-handed has been on the injury list since mid-August, apparently suffering setbacks.
It was another blow to the Dodgers’ biggest weakness into the playoffs. Blake Treinen Give up 11 runs this month in 7 1/3 of the innings. near Tanner Scott In the last 7 1/3 frames, surrender has been six times. Treinen averaged 5.47 this season; Scott allowed 4.82 runs per 9. Kirby Yates He was knocked down, too, and he fell down earlier this week due to a hamstring crush.
Michael Copci The three-person injury limit is 11 innings. He returned to Illinois State University with knee inflammation, at least for the wild card series, he could not get it. Brusdar Graterol Never recovered from last year’s shoulder surgery. Evan Phillips He underwent surgery for Tommy John in June. Stewart is their seventh potential high-leverage weapon, and they are either unavailable or show no expectations.
The Dodgers were very vulnerable later in the game. left handed Alex Vesia The second straight season and fourth time in the last five years is very good. He received the highest leverage assignment and led the team with eight holdings in the second half. Nanzha classmate Anthony Banda,,,,, Justin Wrobleski and Jack Drell Everyone stretched well.
Neither Wrobleski nor Dreyer had any playoff experience. Banda lost eight innings in the Los Angeles World Series a year ago. He performed well enough but did not endure many key situations. There is almost no certainty on the right. The Dodgers just activated Roki Sasaki After four months of absence, he suffered a shoulder injury. He’ll feel relieved Edgardo Henriquez As a right-handed alternative, if Treinen doesn’t figure it out.
Their best option except Vesia is probably all that everyone can go to the bullpen in October. Almost certainly Emmet Sheehan’s Role. Clayton Kershaw Come out of the bullpen on Wednesday to prepare for potential relief efforts. Shohei Ohtani Even left the door late in the game (via links from Thomas Harrigan and Sonja Chen at MLB.com). MLB’s two-way player rules only apply to starting pitchers, which makes this complicated. If Ohtani starts the game as a designated hitter and then kicks out of the bullpen, the Dodgers lose DH once they remove DH. It takes them to play in the outfield Ohtani – everything he did in the 8 1/3 innings in the major league four years ago – or lost the Bats late in the game.
And more.
