Dodgers notes: Blake Snell, Dalton Rushing, Will Klein

Before Tuesday's game, Blake Snell pitched a bullpen session at Dodger Stadium as he works his way back from leaving last Wednesday's start with left groin discomfort . Manager Dave Roberts said Snell is in line to start on Saturday in San Francisco against the Giants, with Tarik Skubal — currently on the bereavement list — starting Friday night at Oracle Park.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto starts Wednesday and Tyler Glasnow Thursday against the Padres.

Also on Tuesday, reliever Will Klein pitched a simulated inning against Dalton Rushing in a battle of players on the injured list. Klein is on the 60-day injured list with elbow discomfort and not eligible to be activated until September 30 at the earliest, but it looks like he'll be in the stay-hot camp should the Dodgers have room to add him at some point later in the postseason, similar to in 2025 when Klein wasn't active until the World Series and he pitched five scoreless innings, including four innings in the marathon Game 3.
