Stewart

Stewart is likely going to need a rehab assignment since he’s made just two appearances this season due to foot and shoulder issues. The 34-year-old has the stuff to pitch in high-leverage spots and will help fortify Los Angeles’ late-inning mix once he’s back in early June.

Two appearances and then right back on the IL for the oft-injured Stewart. He came off the IL on Wednesday after spending the first six weeks rehabbing from shoulder surgery.

Stewart is recovering from last season’s shoulder surgery and will make his season debut when he gets into a game. He was solid in 2025 for the Twins and Dodgers in 37 2/3 innings and will work in the middle innings out of the bullpen.

Stewart is working his way back from last year’s shoulder procedure that cut his return to Los Angeles short. The 34-year-old figures to be ready to make his season debut at some point in the next few weeks.

Stewart is back throwing off a mound after surgery in September, and he could join the Dodgers pen in a month or so.

Stewart, 34, had a 2.63 ERA in 37 2/3 innings for the Twins and Dodgers last year, but he required shoulder debridement surgery at the end of the season and will probably miss at least the first month of 2026. He’s slated to become a free agent after the 2027 season.

The club had been hopeful that Stewart would rejoin the team’s bullpen for the final week of the regular season, so when that didn’t happen speculation began that he could be dealing with something a bit more serious. This will obviously end his 2025 season. The 33-year-old hurler posted a 2.63 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and a 44/13 K/BB ratio across 37 2/3 innings between the Twins and Dodgers on the season.

The 33-year-old reliever has been on the injured list since August 12 and has since received cortisone injections. He appears to be healthy and could be activated in a day to strengthen to Dodgers’ pen.

Stewart will make a couple rehab appearances this week before returning to Los Angeles’ bullpen mix for the final week of the regular season. The 33-year-old reliever hit the injured list back in mid-August with right shoulder inflammation.

Stewart’s MRI revealed no structural damage, but there hasn’t been much good news since. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters the team still believes Stewart can return in 2025, but that’s looking less and less likely.
