Remains shut down Gonsolin (shoulder) has not picked up a baseball since hitting the 10-day injured list July 31, Michael J. Duarte of NBC LA reports.
Impact The right-hander was diagnosed with right shoulder inflammation after walking five batters over 1.2 innings against Atlanta on July 31. He's eligible to come off the IL on Tuesday, but it's apparent that Gonsolin won't come close to returning that soon. The Dodgers' recent signing of Cole Hamels could indicate that they expect Gonsolin to remain out for a considerable period of time.

Out with shoulder inflammation Gonsolin was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday with right shoulder inflammation, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Impact The right-hander has apparently been dealing with the shoulder issue on and off, per Eric Stephen of SBNation.com, and he'll head to the injured list after surrendering two runs on a hit and five walks over 1.2 innings Friday against the Diamondbacks. It's unclear how long Gonsolin is expected to be sidelined, but he'll be eligible to be activated Aug. 10 at Philadelphia.

Can't find strike zone Friday Gonsolin completed 1.2 innings against Arizona on Friday, allowing two runs on one hit and five walks while striking out one. He did not factor in the decision.
Impact With Los Angeles anticipating a bullpen game Saturday, the hope was that Gonsolin could take down a decent chunk of innings. Instead, the right-hander was pulled after walking four batters and allowing two runs in a disastrous second inning. Gonsolin threw only 24 of 55 pitches for strikes overall and has now issued 11 free passes over his past 10.1 innings. He still holds a strong 2.78 ERA on the campaign, but additional struggles could put his rotation spot in jeopardy given the recent acquisition of Max Scherzer and the looming return of Clayton Kershaw (forearm).

5.1 shutout innings Gonsolin (2-1) won Saturday's 1-0 game against Colorado, allowing two hits and two walks with seven strikeouts.
Impact Gonsolin was masterful against the Rockies on Saturday, allowing just a single runner past first base and requiring 81 pitches to get through 5.1 innings. The innings and pitch count are among season highs as Gonsolin works back into form and the righty owns a sterling 2.38 ERA through nine starts.

Struggles early Monday Gonsolin (1-1) allowed three runs on five hits and four walks while striking out three over 3.1 innings as he took the loss Monday against the Giants.
Impact Gonsolin got off to a horrible start, coughing up a two-run homer to Buster Posey and a solo blast to Wilmer Flores in back-to-back at-bats in the first inning. He was able to keep the Giants off the scoreboard for the remainder of his outing, but the righty still struggled to find the strike zone at times and was pulled in the fourth after back-to-back walks. Gonsolin continues to be on a limited pitch count as he builds back up to a normal workload, but he's looked solid aside from Monday's performance. He's allowed one run or fewer in all of his other outings; however, he's only finished five innings once, and his 1.47 WHIP and 34:19 K:BB over 28.2 innings don't look great despite his 2.83 ERA. Gonsolin is projected for a favorable home meeting against the Rockies over the weekend.
