LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers’ rotation will exchange one veteran pitcher for another with left-hander Blake Snell set to return from the injured list on Saturday as right-hander Tyler Glasnow was placed in the IL on Friday.
Snell had one more rehab start remaining with Class-A Ontario as he continued to cover from an ongoing bout with shoulder inflammation, but the Dodgers decided that those final five innings of work would be better spent in a start against the Atlanta Braves.
Manager Dave Roberts said the Dodgers were trying “to figure out if (Snell was) open to taking the five innings here versus on rehab, and he couldn’t be more excited to do that.”
The move to get Snell back in the fold was made as right-hander Glasnow went on the IL before Friday night’s series opener against the Braves with lower back discomfort. Glasnow was removed from his start on Wednesday in Houston after one inning.
To take Glasnow’s spot on the active roster, the Dodgers recalled 6-foot-10 right-hander Paul Gervase from Triple-A Oklahoma City. An additional move will need to be made in order to get Snell on the roster on Saturday.
Snell will move into the rotation turn occupied by right-hander Roki Sasaki, with Sasaki now pointed toward a start on Monday night against the San Francisco Giants. Left-hander Justin Wrobleski will make his scheduled start on Sunday afternoon against the Braves.
Glasnow underwent an MRI that did not show a serious injury.
