Brusdar Graterol announced on his Instagram page that he had back surgery.

Graterol had been on the injured list as he recovers from shoulder surgery. However, his velocity dipped during his last appearance in mid-May, and now we know why. As of now, the type of surgery and his exact timeline are unclear, but he will require a months-long recovery process and is at risk of missing the entire 2026 season.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Brusdar Graterol (shoulder) will be shut down for a while due to a back issue.

Graterol was pulled off a rehab assignment over the weekend to undergo further evaluation and imaging after his velocity was down significant in his latest outing. The 27-year-old flamethrower hasn’t pitched in the majors since 2024 and it’s looking highly unlikely he’ll make it back this season. He’s been working his way back from shoulder issues before this most recent back issue flared up. Not good.

Brusdar Graterol (shoulder) has been pulled off of his minor league rehab assignment and will head for imaging after his back flared up on him during his minor league rehab assignment.

Graterol experienced a dip in velocity during his latest outing at Triple-A Oklahoma City which started the concern. We’ll wait and see what the imaging shows, but this will definitely push back the timeline for his return to the Dodgers’ bullpen.

Brusdar Graterol (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday.

Graterol is currently on the injured list as he recovers from right shoulder surgery; an operation that cost him all of 2025 and the first month-plus of 2026. The 27-year-old has been one of the more effective Los Angeles relievers when healthy, and assuming all goes well in the rehab assignment, he could be back with the Dodgers before the end of May.

Dodgers placed RHP Brusdar Graterol on the 15-day injured list following right shoulder surgery.

Graterol seemed to be aiming for Opening Day at the beginning of the spring, but his stuff hasn’t been back to normal in throwing sessions. He’s probably still a ways off from going on a rehab assignment.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Brusdar Graterol (shoulder) won’t be ready for opening day.

Graterol missed all of last season while recovering from shoulder surgery. It doesn’t look like he’s anywhere close to returning, and Roberts added that he’ll be “on a slower progression.” Graterol won’t figure into save chances when healthy either way, but if he’s healthy he could generate some holds.

Brusdar Graterol (shoulder) will resume throwing bullpen sessions in early February.

Graterol missed last season recovering from shoulder surgery and figures to be brought along slowly this spring following the extended layoff. The hard-throwing 27-year-old is a true X-factor for Los Angeles’ bullpen mix but he’s likely ticketed for middle relief with Edwin Díaz, Tanner Scott and Alex Vesia handling the high-leverage work.

Dodgers signed RHP Brusdar Graterol to a one-year, $2.8 million deal to avoid arbitration.

This is the same salary that Graterol made last year before he missed the entire 2025 season while recovering from shoulder surgery. With Edwin Diaz now in town, the Dodgers don’t need Graterol to fill a high leverage role, so he will likely be given plenty of time to work himself back into meaningful innings.

Dodgers placed RHP Brusdar Graterol on the 60-day injured list.

Graterol is likely to miss the majority of the regular season recovering from last November’s shoulder surgery. The hard-throwing 26-year-old righty remains without a definitive return timetable at the moment, but he’s not expected back until the second half of the year.

Dodgers and RHP Brusdar Graterol avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $2.8 million contract.

The 26-year-old hurler had been projected by MLBTradeRumors.com to earn $2.7 million via arbitration, so this agreement looks to be fair for both sides. Graterol wound up missing nearly the entire 2024 season due to recurring shoulder issues that ultimately resulted in him going under the knife. There’s still no clear timeline on when he’ll be ready to return or how much time he may miss to begin the 2025 season.
