Yasmani Grandal (shoulder) out again for Dodgers

Yasmani Grandal (shoulder) is out of the Dodgers' lineup for a third consecutive game on Wednesday night against the Los Angeles Angels.

What It Means:

Grandal still has some inflammation in his left (non-throwing) shoulder, which bothers him when he tries to swing a bat. It's not clear when he might return. Austin Barnes is at catcher for the Dodgers on Wednesday.

Grandal is enjoying a career year in his first campaign with the Dodgers. He owns a career-best .352 wOBA, and he's tied his career-high for homers with 15.
