Dodgers updates on Max Muncy, Tyler Glasnow, Edwin Diaz, Tommy Edman

Kiké Hernández was activated from the 60-day injured list before Monday’s game, but the Dodgers still had multiple key players unavailable. Max Muncy remained sidelined after being hit by a pitch in the right wrist, missing three games and not appearing in the lineup on Tuesday night. Edwin Díaz had surgery on April 22 to remove loose bodies from his right elbow and reported immediate improvement in range of motion. The plan called for Díaz to begin playing catch as soon as Monday or Tuesday, with a return expected during the second half. Tommy Edman cleared a hurdle in increasing running intensity and was set to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday. Tyler Glasnow resumed flat-ground throwing after back discomfort led to a shutdown, and he remained on the 15-day injured list.

"The Los Angeles Dodgers activated Kiké Hernández off the 60-day injured list before Monday's game, but still remain without several key contributors. Among them is Max Muncy, who to this point has avoided the IL after getting hit by a pitch in the right wrist. Muncy has missed three games thus far and won't be in the Dodgers lineup on Tuesday night either, though partly due to the Colorado Rockies starting left-hander Kyle Freeland."

"Edwin Díaz underwent surgery April 22 to remove loose bodies from his right elbow. He reported an immediate improvement in range of motion after they were removed from his triceps area and revealed the loose bodies had been present throughout the entirety of his career. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said the plan was for Díaz to begin playing catch potentially as soon as Monday. If not, he was expected to do so Tuesday. The Dodgers continue to anticipate Díaz returning at some point during the second half of the season."

"Edman had been encountering trouble when attempting to increase the level of intensity he was running at, but seemingly cleared that hurdle last week. Now the 31-year-old is poised to join Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday for the start of a rehab assignment. Position players are permitted to remain on a Minor League rehab assignment for a maximum of 20 days, and Roberts said Edman likely will be "maxed out" on that front."

"Glasnow resumed playing catch from flat ground on Monday after being shut down amid lingering back discomfort. He's been on the 15-day injured list since May 8 and is missing more time than the Dodgers first anticipated. General manager Brandon Gomes nevertheless became the latest to downplay the notion that there should be reason for concern. But because of the amount of time Glasnow"
