Dodgers outfielder A.J. Pollock is scheduled to come off the injured list and return to the team for the first game after of the All-Star break, next Friday against the Boston Red Sox, manager Dave Roberts confirmed.
The date was Pollock’s target since he had the peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) line removed from his biceps last month. The line was required to treat the infection in his right elbow, which landed Pollock on the injured list April 30.
Pollock, 31, was scheduled to begin a rehab assignment for Class-A Rancho Cucamonga on Thursday. The plan, Roberts said, was for him to play five innings Thursday and seven innings Friday before playing a complete game.
