Sheehan Exits Triple-A Rehab Start Early After Just 22 Pitches
The Dodgers pitching prospect was pulled unusually early in his first Triple-A Oklahoma City outing, suggesting a possible setback.
Emmet Sheehan lasted only two outs and 22 pitches before exiting his first start with Triple-A Oklahoma City. The early departure is a red flag for a pitcher working his way back, as healthy starters are not typically pulled that quickly. Dodgers beat reporter Fabian Ardaya flagged the development, though no official injury designation has been announced. The Dodgers' rotation depth and Sheehan's MLB timeline could be affected if this signals a physical issue.
