Blake Snell's recovery from shoulder inflammation has encountered a setback, causing the Dodgers to cancel his scheduled bullpen session. After feeling discomfort while playing catch, manager Dave Roberts stated that they will be cautious with Snell's throwing regimen. Snell has pitched only nine innings this season after signing a five-year, $182 million contract. Despite initially showing promise with a 2.00 ERA, the Dodgers placed him on the 15-day injured list due to shoulder issues. Roberts emphasized the importance of ensuring Snell's full health as the season progresses, suggesting a focus on long-term performance rather than rushing back into action.
