Dodgers' Brock Stewart Out for Postseason After Undergoing Season-Ending Shoulder Surgery
Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Brock Stewart will miss the entire postseason after undergoing season-ending shoulder surgery, manager Dave Roberts announced on Friday. Stewart, who was acquired at the trade deadline to bolster the bullpen, had been sidelined since early August with a shoulder problem and continued to experience residual soreness after a minor-league rehab stint. The 33-year-old will undergo a debridement procedure, with general manager Brandon Gomes anticipating he will pitch for the majority of next season while remaining under team control. Stewart's absence, following a 2.38 ERA with the Twins this season, creates a significant void in the Dodgers' bullpen, marking his second shoulder surgery in two seasons.
