Los Angeles Dodgers phenom Roki Sasaki has begun working his way back from a shoulder impingement. Sasaki, who has not pitched since May 9, threw a bullpen session two days ago and is expected to do so again Monday,

The Los Angeles Dodgers have been without rookie pitcher Roki Sasaki since early May, but Sunday afternoon manager Dave Roberts gave an update on his status.

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts didn’t seem so confident in Roki Sasaki pitching again this season. “We have to plan on life without him at least this year, that’s fair to say,” Roberts said last month of the right-hander who went on the injured list with a shoulder impingement in May.
