The Dodgers have placed right-hander Evan Phillips on the 15-day injured list due to forearm discomfort, which was later revealed to involve elbow inflammation. Initial optimism from Manager Dave Roberts has faded, as Phillips will be shut down for a couple of weeks before needing to ramp up again. This is part of an ongoing injury saga for Phillips, who dealt with shoulder and arm issues last season. Despite having 13 pitchers on the IL, the Dodgers maintain a strong record, allowing for cautious management of Phillips' recovery.
The Dodgers are handling Evan Phillips' forearm discomfort cautiously, now aware of elbow inflammation, putting him on a longer recovery path after prior small injuries.
Manager Dave Roberts noted that Phillips will miss more time than initially expected due to new MRI results indicating elbow inflammation and a need for rest.
