Emmet Sheehan faced a challenging start to his 2024 season aspirations with the Los Angeles Dodgers due to injuries that led to Tommy John surgery. Initially expected to compete for a starting position, Sheehan was diagnosed with forearm inflammation and subsequently underwent surgery. Now nearing nine months post-operation, he has experienced positive recovery progress, indicating possible rehab assignments by mid-2024. Despite a crowded starting pitching roster, including returning players from injury, Sheehan remains optimistic but acknowledges limited opportunities due to the depth of the Dodgers' rotation.
I've been feeling great, I'm throwing, about eight and a half months out of surgery, so it's been all good. They take really good care of us down in Arizona when we're rehabbing, so that's been awesome.
I kind of thought it would be more July, but everything has been going pretty smooth. I think that's basically how they're feeling about it.
With the additions made during the offseason, along with Tony Gonsolin and Dustin May also returning from respective injuries, the Dodgers are once again filled to the brim with starting pitching options for 2025.
Of course, it didn't seem to do them much good last season as they were eventually down to just three starters for the playoffs.
