  • Not cleared for baseball activities
    Heyward (back) has not yet been cleared to resume baseball activities, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

    Advice: The Dodgers' last update on Heyward was that he was still experiencing soreness in his back, and it doesn't sound as though he's progressed much over the last week. Considering Hayward hasn't seen any game action since April 1, he'll likely need a considerable amount of time to ramp up once cleared. A timetable for his return should begin to come into focus once he can resume baseball drills. Rotowire.com 11 minutes ago
     
  • Heyward (back) still not cleared for activities
    Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters before Monday’s game that Jason Heyward still hasn’t been cleared for baseball activities.

    Advice: To be more specific, Roberts said that he “doesn’t believe” Heyward has been cleared for activities, which is a little weird. Heyward will certainly need a rehab assignment before he’s ready to play, but that assignment may not come until next week at the earliest. There’s a good chance he’s not back with the Dodgers until closer to the end of May than the beginning. Rotoworld 13 minutes ago
     
  • Tim Anderson leaves with left thumb sprain
    Tim Anderson left Monday’s game against the Nationals with a left thumb sprain.

    Advice: Anderson collided with Alex Call on a tag and looked to be in a significant amount of pain. The Marlins are calling Anderson day-to-day, but don’t be surprised if the 31-year-old misses at least a game while he recovers. Rotoworld 23 minutes ago

  • Progressing through running program
    Andujar (knee) is expected to run the bases Saturday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: This is another step in the right direction for Andujar, who was cleared to begin a running program April 23. If he's able to work out Saturday without issue, he'll likely be sent out on a rehab assignment in the near future. Rotowire.com 24 minutes ago

  • Will continue rehab stint
    Davis (thigh) will remain on a rehab assignment at Triple-A Las Vegas at least until Thursday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Davis got through Sunday's rehab appearance at Triple-A Las Vegas without issue, but the club evidently wants to see him get a few more chances in the minors before activating him from the 10-day IL. He served as the DH on Sunday, so he'll likely see some opportunities in the field later in the week to ensure he's back to full strength. Rotowire.com 30 minutes ago

  • Shut down from activity
    Gelof (oblique) is currently shut down from baseball activity, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Gelof was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a strained left oblique, but he appears to be on track to miss more than the minimum amount of days. The 24-year-old will likely need to ramp his activity over a series of days before he could ultimately be activated. In the meantime, Max Schuemann will likely continue to handle the lion's share of work at second base with Oakland in Gelof's absence. Rotowire.com 31 minutes ago

  • J.D. Davis (groin) remaining with AAA through Thursday
    J.D. Davis (groin) will remain on his rehab assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas through at least Thursday.

    Advice: If Davis checks out well over the next few days, the 31-year-old could be back in action over the weekend for the Athletics. The right-handed hitter has been out of action with a groin strain since April 16. Rotoworld 35 minutes ago

  • Exits early Monday
    Anderson was removed from Monday's game against the Nationals with an apparent left hand injury, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Anderson appeared to suffer the injury while playing the field, though the team has yet to provide an official update on his status. Dane Myers will fill Anderson's spot in the order and man right field, while Vidal Brujan enters the game for Jesus Sanchez and slots in at shortstop. Rotowire.com 39 minutes ago

  • Tim Anderson leaves Monday with apparent injury
    Tim Anderson left Monday’s game against the Nationals with an apparent injury.

    Advice: Anderson appeared to hurt his hand on a play that results in an Alex Call double. Anderson should be considered day-to-day for now, but Dane Myers has replaced the infielder, with Myers moving to the outfield and Vidal Brujan now in at shortstop. Rotoworld 40 minutes ago
