Dodgers Injury Updates: Jason Heyward, Bobby Miller. Evan Phillips & Ryan Brasier

The Los Angeles Dodgers have dealt with the injury bug early in the season, but multiple players are making progress in their recoveries. Jason Heyward has been on the 10-day injured list since April 3 with lower back tightness, but he is closing in on a return after beginning a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday. A rehab assignment was not originally thought to be necessary for Heyward's recovery plan, but that all changed after his increasingly extended absence from the Major League roster. The veteran took three at-bats with Oklahoma City, and it's expected he'll be activated sometime soon.
