Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Will Klein is on the injured list with right elbow soreness, but rather than opt for surgery, he is going to try to rest his arm and come back this season.
Klein struggled immensely, leading to an IL stint a week ago. Now, he has been found to have loose bodies in his elbow, though he is choosing a rest-oriented method instead of surgery.
He is going to start a throwing program soon, Klein said to the media, including Dodgers Nation.
Loose bodies — an ailment that has led to Blake Snell and Edwin Diaz going through surgery, along with new addition Tarik Skubal — require surgery to fully treat and tend to have a recovery time of 2-3 months.
