Snell hasn’t appeared in a game since the beginning of April and has since hit the injured list with shoulder inflammation.

Per The Athletic’s Fabian Ardaya, manager Dave Roberts reported Snell “didn’t feel great” after the southpaw was playing catch on Tuesday. It’s possible that Snell will go for additional imaging on his shoulder when the team returns to Los Angeles on Thursday or Friday.
