Jason Schmidt To The DL

post from 6-4-2 — an Angels/Dodgers double play blog on 17 April 2007 01:54:00 PM. © 6-4-2 — an Angels/Dodgers double play blog

According to Inside The Dodgers, Jason Schmidt has been placed on the 15-day DL, retroactive to Sunday. dodgers.com has the injury as an inflamed bursa sac. There is no timetable for his return, nor any idea who will be called up in his stead; most likely Mark Hendrickson will take his place in the rotation.

SOSG quotes Dodger Thoughts commenter bhsportsguy as saying

Jason Schmidt suffered a similar issue back in 2005, he was disabled with a similar issue, he missed two weeks and still made 29 starts. He started 2004 with on the DL with a generally descrbed shoulder strain and still made 32 starts. Sounds like this is something that comes up and both Ned and Stan Conte are very familiar with it.

N.b. "very familiar with" != "know how to fix".

Dodgers Plan On Re-Opening Scott Ave. Gate

post from 6-4-2 — an Angels/Dodgers double play blog on 17 April 2007 01:27:00 PM. © 6-4-2 — an Angels/Dodgers double play blog

LA Observed has a brief piece up quoting an e-mail from an Echo Park resident who reports that the Dodgers plan on re-opening the Scott Ave. gate. This gate has been closed for about eleven years because of the work of then-city councilwoman Jackie Goldberg and local residents who complained about the traffic through their neighborhood. The Dodgers will make a presentation at the Barlow Hospital, 2000 Stadium Way, Los Angeles, 90026, on Wednesday at 7 pm. jjackflash suggested that the Scott Ave. gate closure may well have been part of the problem in an earlier post. Could it be that someone is listening at Dodger Central?
