""Brock, we're still kind of day-to-day right now," Roberts said. His comments came shortly after Stewart played catch in the outfield at Chase Field with Dodgers general manager Brandon Gomes and a trainer watching. Roberts did not specify when asked if Stewart is dealing with more right shoulder trouble. "Just kind of workload, kind of making sure he feels good. Just some conversations with Brock, making sure he's put in a position to feel good if he is activated," Roberts said."
"The Los Angeles Dodgers began their final road trip of the season with Brock Stewart and Roki Sasaki joining the team from Triple-A Oklahoma City. That had been planned after the pair of right-handers both pitched for the Comets in their final game of the year on Sunday. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts had previously indicated Sasaki would not be activated off the 60-day injured list until Wednesday at the earliest."
The Dodgers began their final road trip with Brock Stewart and Roki Sasaki joining the team from Triple-A Oklahoma City. Sasaki pitched in the Comets' final game and remained on the 60-day injured list, with activation not expected until at least Wednesday. Stewart's activation is uncertain; he was described as day-to-day while playing catch at Chase Field under observation by general manager Brandon Gomes and a trainer. Manager Dave Roberts cited workload and conversations with Stewart for delaying activation. Stewart has been on the 15-day injured list since mid-August with right shoulder inflammation after cortisone treatments. He made four appearances after the trade, allowing two runs in 3.2 innings. Losing Stewart would thin right-handed relief, leaving Sasaki, Emmet Sheehan and Ben Casparius as possible options.
