Roki Sasaki, the promising right-hander for the Los Angeles Dodgers, has resumed his throwing program after a right shoulder injury sidelined him since May. Manager Dave Roberts noted that Sasaki successfully threw from 60 to 90 feet, expressing excitement over this progress.

Initially placed on the injured list due to shoulder impingement, Sasaki was moved to the 60-day injured list to accommodate new roster adjustments. Despite his earlier discomfort, he has shown no pain and aims to regain game strength in the upcoming weeks. His performance prior to the injury included a record of 1-1 with a 4.72 ERA across eight starts, marking his first season in MLB after transitioning from Japan.

As the Dodgers manage multiple injuries in their pitching staff, they also monitor the recoveries of Tyler Glasnow and Blake Snell, both of whom have faced shoulder issues. Glasnow is set to pitch in a rehab assignment soon, while Snell prepares for a bullpen session. The Dodgers are looking to fortify their rotation, which Sasaki was set to be a significant part of.
