Sheehan (elbow) is expected to work at least four innings during his next rehab start, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sheehan has looked solid during his time in the minors, working three frames in each of his last two appearances at Triple-A Oklahoma City. The right-hander may only need to make one more start at Triple-A before the club considers activating him from the 60-day IL, as skipper Dave Roberts stated Monday that there could be a conversation about adding Sheehan to the big-league rotation following his next rehab appearance.

Sheehan threw three innings, allowing one run on two hits and a walk while striking out four in a rehab appearance with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sheehan made his second appearance with Oklahoma City and his third rehab outing in total. He stayed steady at three innings of work but continued to look impressive. Sheehan has allowed only four hits across eight innings, paired with a 14:1 K:BB in three rehab starts. He'll likely need two additional rehab appearances before being activated.

Sheehan (elbow) struck out five batters and allowed two hits and no walks over three scoreless innings in his rehab start Sunday with Triple-A Oklahoma City.

EDGE Analysis

On the comeback trail following his May 2024 Tommy John surgery, Sheehan was cleared to kick off his rehab assignment last Monday. After striking out five batters over two perfect innings in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League in his first rehab outing, Sheehan shifted his assignment to Oklahoma City and was unfazed by the jump in competition. He induced 10 swings and misses on his 39 pitches Sunday and retired the first eight batters of the day, with the only damage against him being a bloop single and an infield single. Sheehan will likely need at least two more rehab starts to get fully stretched back out for a starting role, and if he continues to excel in his subsequent outings in the minors, he could garner consideration for a spot in the Dodgers' six-man rotation once he's activated from the 60-day injured list.

Sheehan (elbow) was sent to the Arizona Complex League to begin a rehab assignment Monday, per MLB's transactions log.

EDGE Analysis

It was recently reported that Sheehan would likely be ready for a rehab assignment at some point in June, but he appears to be ahead of schedule. The 25-year-old was initially placed on the 15-day injured list March 17 before being transferred to the 60-day IL later that month while continuing to work back from Tommy John surgery with an internal brace procedure. Expect Sheehan to make several minor-league appearances as he begins to build back up from a significant injury.

Sheehan (elbow) could begin a minor-league rehab assignment sometime in June, per MLB.com.

EDGE Analysis

Sheehan has been throwing to live hitters at the Dodgers' complex in Arizona as he works his way back from the Tommy John surgery he underwent in May of last year. It's not yet clear at what point in June the right-handed hurler could kick off a rehab stint, and he's not expected to be ready to be activated off the injured list until around the All-Star break.

Sheehan (elbow) threw around 40 pitches in a simulated game Thursday, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sheehan has been throwing off a mound since late March and progressively increasing his workload. Manager Dave Roberts didn't have an exact timeline for Sheehan to begin a rehab assignment, but did say that step could come soon. Roberts also confirmed that Sheehan will be built up to be a starter.

The Dodgers transferred Sheehan (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The transaction frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of Noah Davis. Sheehan will be sidelined until around midseason as he continues his rehab from an internal brace procedure.

Sheehan (elbow) was placed on the 15-day injured list Monday, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sheehan has been cleared to throw off a mound after undergoing surgery on his right forearm in May of 2024, though he's not expected to embark on a rehab assignment for a few more months, likely in May or June. The club should have a better idea on a return date as he continues to progress through his rehab.

Sheehan (elbow) has resumed throwing off a mound over the offseason, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sheehan didn't pitch at all last season due to a forearm injury, and he ultimately underwent an internal brace procedure in May to address the issue. The 25-year-old righty aims to begin a minor-league rehab assignment sometime in May or June with a return from the injured list likely to come closer to the All-Star break. The Dodgers have done a lot this winter to upgrade their pitching staff, however, so there's no guarantee he'll have a spot waiting for him in the majors once he's healthy.

Sheehan revealed Monday that last week's right elbow surgery was an internal brace procedure, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The internal brace procedure typically allows for a shorter rehab than a traditional Tommy John surgery, although Sheehan noted Monday that he's been told to expect the rehab to last 13 months. That puts the young right-hander out until around the All-Star break next year.
