If you’re hoping to see Blake Treinen on the mound anytime soon, you’ll be disappointed by the recent update.
On Thursday, the Dodgers transferred Treinen to the 60-day injured list. The electric 36-year-old pitcher has been shut down for over two weeks after experiencing forearm tightness in a game versus the Chicago Cubs on April 13. Now, he’ll be out much longer than the minimum 15-day IL stint.

With Treinen sidelined so early in the year, manager Dave Roberts indicated this week that there’s no real need to push him back into action considering his age and history of various arm injuries.
