Emmet Sheehan was primed to contend for a spot in the starting rotation this time last year.
Some forearm soreness after his first bullpen turned into something more and before he was able to make his season debut for the Los Angeles Dodgers, his year was over.
Sheehan underwent Tommy John surgery in mid-May and didn’t pitch at all for the Dodgers in 2024. He’s hoping to begin a rehab assignment in late May or early June, Sheehan revealed at Fan Fest Saturday.
However, the right-hander is already throwing off a mound.
The right-hander made his MLB debut in 2023, pitching 60.
