Blake Snell Set for "Nano-Scope" Procedure on Elbow
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Blake Snell (elbow) will undergo a "nano-scope" procedure to remove loose bodies in his left elbow on Tuesday, per Alden Gonzalez of ESPN. Gonzalez notes that it's the same procedure that was recently performed on Detroit Tigers starter Tarik Skubal (elbow), and that the Dodgers are hoping for a relatively short return timeline for Snell. It's been a nightmare season to this point for Snell, who opened the year on the injured list due to a shoulder issue. The 33-year-old made just one start for the Dodgers before experiencing pain in his elbow that led to his current IL stint. Snell remains a high-upside fantasy starter when healthy, but the veteran left-hander has now made just 32 starts since the beginning of the 2024 season. He could be worth stashing in deeper formats or leagues with an IL spot. However, Snell's profile is riddled with injury risk at this point in his career.
