The Los Angeles Dodgers were just given great news as reliever Brock Stewart is set to be activated as soon as Monday, with the righty on the closing stretch of his rehabilitation stint. Stewart started 2026 on the injured list, recovering from right shoulder surgery that delayed his return to MLB until May 6th. He only returned for a handful of games before heading to the injured list again, this time with a left foot bone spur on his plant leg.
More than a month after first picking up the bone spur, he looks to finally be ready to make a significant contribution for the Dodgers.

It was only three weeks ago that Dave Roberts revealed that Stewart is dealing with a setback and is not responding to treatment. “The foot is just not totally responding and kind of back, so that’s kind of the thing that’s holding us back a little bit.”May 6, 2026; Houston, Texas, USA; Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Brock Stewart (41) is congratulated by catcher Dalton Rushing (68) after the fin
