Just days after being removed in the first inning of a scheduled start on Saturday against Colorado Springs with an apparent groin strain, the Los Angeles Dodgers determined the injury severe enough to shut down righty pitching prospect Trevor Oaks for the remainder of the season.
Oaks confirmed the news with TBPC on Tuesday morning.
Saturday’s outing was his first since being named Pacific Coast League Pitcher of the Week on August 22, as well as his first appearance since throwing a three-hit complete game against El Paso on August 15.
