Considered day-to-day Manager Dave Roberts said after Sunday's game against the Mets that Heyward had a stinger and is considered day-to-day, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact Heyward sustained his injury in the top of the second inning and was replaced defensively in the bottom of the fourth. His injury was labeled as neck soreness, and he passed concussion testing after the game. While it's not yet clear whether he'll be available for Monday's game against the Orioles, it seems unlikely that he'll require a trip to the injured list.

Managing right knee discomfort Miller exited Sunday's game against the Mets due to right knee discomfort, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact Miller got into a jam in the fifth inning and exited with a trainer after tossing 4.2 innings. He said after the game that he was "all good" and said that he wanted to pitch through the issue. Given his postgame comments, it seems unlikely that the right-hander will be forced to miss any turns through the rotation, but he'll presumably be monitored by the team's medical staff in the coming days. Prior to his departure, he allowed a run on three hits and a walk while striking out five.

Slated for bullpen session Kershaw (shoulder) said Sunday that he expects to throw a bullpen session early next week in Baltimore, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Impact Kershaw's ready to return to elevated ground after three straight days of throwing "full throttle" in the outfield in New York, per Vassegh. The future Hall of Famer's timeline remains vague, as doctors recently recommended more rest. Activation before the end of the Dodgers' current road trip seems like a long shot.

Getting breather Sunday Smith is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Impact Smith will get what looks like a routine rest day after catching the first two games after the break, as well as several innings for the National League in the All-Star Game. Austin Barnes will catch for starter Bobby Miller as Max Muncy moves up to the three hole against right-hander Max Scherzer.

Kicks off rehab assignment Syndergaard (finger) tossed five innings for Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday, allowing two runs on four hits and no walks while striking out six batters.

Impact While Syndergaard is technically on the IL due to a finger blister, the organization has made it clear that the veteran hurler's time away from the team is primarily to have him reset after posting a 7.16 ERA and 1.45 WHIP over his first 12 starts. Though the right-hander yielded a pair of runs in his first rehab outing, he also demonstrated good efficiency, needing just 52 pitches -- 41 of which were a strike -- to get through five frames. The Dodgers have suggested that they still see Syndergaard as a big-league starter, but he'll need to demonstrate improvement during his time with OKC to reclaim that role. Saturday's appearance was a positive step in that direction.

Perfect at plate Saturday Betts went 4-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run and a walk in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Mets.

Impact The Mets couldn't keep Betts off base Saturday, as the All-Star outfielder reached in all five of his plate appearances. He plated Los Angeles' first run with a solo homer in the third inning and scored an insurance run in the ninth. Betts' brilliance this season has largely centered on his power -- his current .596 SLG and .309 ISO are each on pace to be career-high marks, and with 27 homers he's just eight shy of the career-best 35 he notched last season. Betts has been on a major heater for over three weeks, slashing .410/.500/1.033 with 10 long balls, 21 RBI, 20 runs, two steals and a 14:7 BB:K over 17 contests since June 23.

Pulled after 54 pitches Gonsolin allowed two hits and one run in a no-decision against the Mets on Saturday. He walked one batter and struck out three.

Impact Gonsolin gave up a deep solo blast to Brandon Nimmo in the fourth inning but otherwise kept the Mets off the scoreboard. It was curious, then, that he was pulled after the fifth frame having thrown just 54 pitches, but manager Dave Roberts clarified after the contest that the quick hook wasn't due to an injury. "You could see Tony kind of battling with the humidity, the feel of the baseball. When you're looking down at a fresh 'pen, for me it was a no-brainer on shortening him right there as far as pitch count," Roberts stated, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic. Ardaya adds that Gonsolin himself stated that he "couldn't get a good grip on the ball," so there doesn't seem to be any concern about the right-hander's health. Gonsolin should be good to go without restrictions for his next outing, which is lined up to be a tough matchup against the Rangers in Texas.
