Injuries are already interfering with 11 Los Angeles Dodgers pitchers’ 2025 seasons.
The Dodgers opened the new season with 11 pitchers on the injured list, including right-handed starting pitcher Tony Gonsolin. The 2022 National League All-Star sustained a back injury while lifting weights.
“I was squatting. I wasn’t even going heavy,” Gonsolin said of the injury. “I think it was probably slightly out of place before, and then under load, it just kind of shifted a little bit.
“It wasn’t too painful, but it was altering my throw, and we wanted to take a break, let it actually heal to keep the throw good.
