Dodgers place LHP Blake Snell (shoulder) on IL

The Los Angeles Dodgers placed left-hander Blake Snell on the 15-day injured list Sunday with inflammation in his pitching shoulder.

The move is retroactive to Thursday.

The Dodgers recalled right-hander Matt Sauer in a corresponding move on Sunday.

A two-time Cy Young Award winner, Snell signed a five-year, $182 million contract with the Dodgers in November.

Snell, 32, is 1-0 with a 2.00 ERA and four strikeouts in two starts this season.

A first-round draft pick by Tampa Bay in 2011, Snell has a 77-58 career record with a 3.18 ERA in 213 career starts with the Rays (2016-20), San Diego Padres (2021-23), San Francisco Giants (2024) and Dodgers.

Sauer, 26, posted a 7.71 in 14 relief appearances last season with the Kansas City Royals.

He was on the Tokyo Series roster but did not appear in a game for the Dodgers.
