Blake Snell is back on the mound for the Dodgers after a three-month absence, activated from the 60-day injured list to start tonight’s game — a major boost for a team reeling from seven straight losses. The two-time Cy Young winner battled shoulder fatigue and elbow surgery, opting for a faster-recovery procedure for a teammate but sticking to a standard timeline himself. With playoff positioning on the line and October looming, the Dodgers are being cautious but hopeful Snell can deliver when it matters most. His return comes with roster adjustments: Charlie Barnes heads to Triple-A and Blake Treinen goes on the 60-day IL. The Dodgers are now running a six-man rotation, waiting on Tyler Glasnow’s return while Shohei Ohtani continues to hit (knee issue) but remains poised to pitch again. Despite their recent slump, they still hold a comfortable division lead and need to lock in a top seed to avoid the wild card. Snell’s health could be the key to turning things around and securing a championship run.
