Dodgers News: LA Bending Rules to Likely Bring Michael Grove Back This Week Expect to see to Grove back in Anaheim.

JUNE 18, 2023 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Optioned to Triple-A Grove was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday by the Dodgers, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.

Impact It clears a spot on the 26-man active roster for Emmet Sheehan, who was brought up from Triple-A Oklahoma City to make his MLB debut versus the Giants on Friday. Grove will likely be up again with Los Angeles in the near future, but there's just as much fantasy risk in his right arm as there is reward.

Serves up four homers Thursday Grove allowed four runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out seven batters over five innings in a no-decision against the White Sox on Thursday.

Impact It's rarely a positive takeaway when a pitcher gets blasted for four long balls, but the silver lining for the Dodgers -- and Grove's fantasy managers -- is that all four were solo blasts and that the Guardians didn't push any runs across the plate otherwise. Another way to look at Grove's outing optimistically is to note his 18 whiffs and seven punchouts, which tied his season-high mark. The right-hander has given up exactly four runs in each of his past three starts, totaling 14 innings over that span. That's neither disastrous nor particularly good, and Los Angeles may have no choice but to stick with him given its injury-burdened rotation. From a fantasy perspective, managers can probably do better than Grove's current 8.10 ERA, 1.60 WHIP and lack of any wins across seven outings.

Allows four runs as bulk reliever Grove allowed four runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out two over four innings during Friday's 5-4 loss to Philadelphia.

Impact Grove operated as the a bulk reliever behind Victor Gonzales, who faced just three batters as the opener. The former has made two appearances since being activated off the injured list at the beginning of June, and while he's allowed eight runs on 11 hits through nine innings, he's posted a strong 9:1 K:BB during that stretch. He figures to remain a steady part of the Dodgers' rotation while Julio Urias (hamstring) and Noah Syndergaard (finger) are on injured reserve, but with Urias nearing a return, Grove could be headed for a stint in the minors.

In line for bulk relief Grove is in line to serve as a bulk reliever for the Dodgers on Friday against the Phillies, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact He had been the projected starter, but the Dodgers have elected to use Victor Gonzalez as an opener first. Grove holds a 5.14 ERA over five starts with the big club this season, although that's come with a 21:7 K:BB.

JUNE 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Remains in rotation Grove is scheduled to start Friday's game against the Phillies in Philadelphia.

Impact He'll be making his second straight turn through the Dodgers rotation after he returned from a stint on the 15-day injured list June 3 and tossed five innings while striking out seven and allowing four earned runs in a loss to the Yankees. The Dodgers could get Julio Urias (hamstring) back from the IL next week, but with Noah Syndergaard (finger) going on the IL on Thursday, Grove's spot in the rotation appears safe for now.

Dodgers Rookie Michael Grove Open to Doing Whatever Team Needs of Him The rookie pitcher is willing to fill whatever role is needed, with a rotation shuffle potentially on the horizon.

Takes loss in return Grove (0-2) took the loss against the Yankees on Saturday, allowing four runs on four hits and no walks while striking out seven batters over five innings.

Impact The Yankees reached only four times against Grove, but Jake Bauers ensured that no runners were left on base while the hurler was in the contest by swatting a pair of two-run homers. Despite the loss, there were some positive takeaways for the right-hander -- he didn't walk any batters for the first time in five outings this season, racked up a career-high seven punchouts and induced 13 swinging strikes, also a career-high mark. Grove was called up to start after a stint on the injured list due to a groin injury, and he took over the rotation spot that had previously been filled by Gavin Stone, who has struggled in the big leagues when given the opportunity this season. Los Angeles' rotation is in a bit of flux right now -- Julio Urias (hamstring) is unlikely to return from the IL until at least next weekend, and Noah Syndergaard has pitched so poorly that the team may need to make a decision about his rotation spot soon -- so there's an opening for Grove to be more than just a temporary replacement if he's able to build upon Saturday's positives in his next start.

Alexander: Yankees win, but Dodgers see some hopeful signs Julio Urías is closer to returning, and Michael Grove had some impressive moments sandwiched around a pair of two-run homers.

Activated for Saturday start Grove (groin) was activated from the 15-day injured list Saturday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact As planned, Grove will get another look out of the Dodgers' starting rotation -- beginning with Saturday's game against the visiting Yankees -- after he missed a little over five weeks because of a right groin strain. The 26-year-old was excellent in his second and final rehab start last weekend with Triple-A Oklahoma City, tallying seven strikeouts with no walks across 5.2 scoreless innings.

JUNE 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Confirmed for Saturday's start Grove (groin) will start for the Dodgers on Saturday versus the Yankees, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact It's been the expectation and manager Dave Roberts has now confirmed it. Grove has been out since late April with a groin strain but is ready to roll now after pitching well in both of his rehab starts. He'll be taking the rotation spot of Gavin Stone, who was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

MAY 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Good chance to start Saturday Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters before Tuesday's game that it "makes a lot of sense" for Grove (groin) to be activated to start Saturday against the Yankees, but that a...

Impact Roberts has been on the injured list due to a groin strain, and the right-hander appears likely to join the Los Angeles rotation this weekend even if the Dodgers haven't fully committed to the notion just yet. The right-hander struggled to an 8.44 ERA, and even while pitching behind one of the best teams in baseball, there are likely better options out there in terms of potential fantasy production.

MAY 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to rejoin rotation Grove (groin) is expected to take Gavin Stone's spot in the Dodgers' rotation this weekend versus the Yankees, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Working his way back from a groin strain, Grove has looked sharp in both of his rehab outings as Stone struggles mightily with the big club. Grove posted an 8.44 ERA in four starts for the Dodgers earlier this season before getting hurt and isn't a terribly appealing fantasy option.

Dodgers' Injured SP Michael Grove Nears Return, Could be Activated This Week A bit of pitching help in the form of a healthy human body for the Dodgers.

Excels in latest rehab start Grove (groin) struck out seven and allowed five hits and no walks over 5.2 innings in his second rehab start Saturday with Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Impact Grove built up to 77 pitches Saturday and has now looked sharp over both of his rehab outings with Oklahoma City, working 10 innings in total while striking out 14 and allowing just nine baserunners. The Dodgers have yet to comment on Grove's next step, but he appears likely to return from the 15-day injured list to slot into Los Angeles' rotation during next weekend's series with the Yankees. Though the team doesn't have a rotation opening for Grove at the moment, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts was non-committal on rookie Gavin Stone making his next start after the young right-hander was lit up for seven earned runs in two innings in Sunday's loss to the Rays, bringing his ERA to 14.40 over his first three MLB outings.

MAY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Fans nine in rehab start Grove tossed 4.1 innings for Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday, allowing two runs on three hits and one walk while striking out seven batters.

Impact Grove gave up a pair of solo homers in the outing but otherwise pitched very well. This was his first appearance in a game since he tossed three innings for the big-league Dodgers against the Cubs on April 20. It's not yet certain if the organization plans to have Grove make multiple rehab appearances or if he'll be called up to the majors for his next start. The right-hander tossed 64 pitches Sunday, so he's not quite ready for a full workload, but the Dodgers suddenly find themselves in need of starting pitching with Julio Urias (hamstring) and Dustin May (forearm) recently moved to the injured list. Rookies Gavin Stone and Bobby Miller are starting the first two games of the team's current series in Atlanta.

Dodgers Injury News: Michael Grove Heads Out on Minor League Rehab, Closing in On Return The injured rookie is inching toward his return to the active roster.

MAY 21, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Making rehab start with OKC Grove (groin) will make a rehab start for Triple-A Oklahoma City in the coming days, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Impact Grove has left St. Louis and will prepare for that rehab start with the Triple-A Dodgers. The right-hander has been on the shelf with a right groin strain and he'll likely need to make one more rehab appearance before having a chance to join the Los Angeles pitching staff before the end of June.

MAY 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Nearing activation from IL? Grove (groin) has joined the Dodgers in St. Louis after throwing a bullpen session in Arizona on Wednesday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Grove might be an option to help fill Dustin May's (forearm) spot in the rotation, which comes around again Monday at Atlanta. That would mean skipping a minor-league rehab assignment. The 26-year-old had posted an ugly 8.44 ERA through 16 major-league innings (four starts) with Los Angeles prior to suffering a right groin strain in late April.

MAY 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Throws live batting practice Grove (groin) threw live batting practice Tuesday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Grove has been working out at the Dodgers' spring training complex in Arizona and might soon be cleared to embark on a minor-league rehab assignment. Sidelined since April 21 due to a right groin strain, the 26-year-old should be ready again for major-league action before the end of May.

MAY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Goes on injured list Los Angeles placed Grove (groin) on the 15-day injured list Friday, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Impact Grove tweaked his right groin in the bullpen prior to his start Thursday against the Cubs and then was removed from the outing in the fourth inning when it flared up on him. The injury isn't considered serious, so Grove has a shot at returning from the IL in the minimum 15 days.

Dodgers News: Dave Roberts Provides Update on Injured RHP Michael Grove He left Thursday’s game early with an apparent injury.

APRIL 21, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Destined for IL Manager Dave Roberts confirmed after Thursday's game against the Cubs that Grove (groin) would be placed on the injured list, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact Grove left his start Thursday night after suffering a groin strain. After the game, Roberts suggested that the injury wasn't overly serious, but Grove will still be forced to miss at least the next two weeks of action. The team has a number of options to fill in for him, including turning to a four-man rotation or activating Tony Gonsolin (ankle) from the injured list.

APRIL 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Diagnosed with groin strain Grove suffered a strain in his right groin during Thursday's start against the Cubs, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Impact Grove was pulled in the fourth inning of his start after suffering an apparent lower-body injury. No formal move has been made yet, but it's likely that he'll end up on the injured list. The Dodgers have an off day Monday, so the team could opt to use a four-man rotation in the short term with both Ryan Pepiot (oblique) and Tony Gonsolin (ankle) still sidelined.
