Phillips told Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register Friday that “Opening Day is off the table” for him as he returns from a tear in his subscapularis that kept him off the 2024 World Series roster.

Phillips said he has progressed well in his recovery, though, and is not far behind schedule. Thus, an April return seems to be very possible for the Dodgers’ standout reliever.
