Dodgers' Brusdar Graterol: Nearing return

Graterol (shoulder) will likely need at least 2-to-3 more rehab outings before rejoining Los Angeles' bullpen, per MLB.com.

Graterol is five outings into a rehab stint that has included two games with the Dodgers' ACL affiliate and three with Triple-A Oklahoma City. He's given up two runs (one earned) on six hits while posting a 3:0 K:BB across five innings during his assignment thus far. Graterol hasn't pitched in the majors this season, but he could rise up to high-leverage work eventually if he proves effective upon his return.
