Dodgers starting pitcher Roki Sasaki has been out since a start on May 9 and it sounds like his first season stateside might well already be concluded. The 23-year-old rookie has been shut down from his throwing program while trying to work his way back from a shoulder impingement.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts provided a grim update on rookie pitcher Roki Sasaki as he continues his recovery from shoulder injury.

The Los Angeles Dodgers paused right-hander Roki Sasaki's rehab program and indicated the rookie may not return this season.
