Dodgers News: Brock Stewart Receives Cortisone Shot To Treat Shoulder Tendinitis

Thanks to the luxury of great depth in the organization, Spring Training set the stage for many competitions in relation to the Opening Day roster for the Los Angeles Dodgers. Injuries often tend to play a role in that, and such is the case for right-hander Brock Stewart.

He entered camp among the pitchers competing to round out the Dodgers rotation. Even with that, Stewart was a long shot to beat out the likes of Scott Kazmir, Brandon McCarthy and Julio Urias, among others.

Stewart was officially eliminated from the competition two weeks ago when the Dodgers shut him down due to right-shoulder tendinitis.
