Dodgers expect Edgardo Henriquez back for NLDS if tests go well
Summary

Los Angeles Dodgers reliever Edgardo Henriquez is "trending really well," according to general manager Brandon Gomes. He is recovering from a lower back injury that sidelined him for the final two weeks of the regular season. Henriquez successfully completed a live batting practice session and has additional activities planned during the bye week. If all goes well, he is expected to be included in the NLDS roster. Prior to his injury, Henriquez was a reliable set-up man and potential closer for the team, giving them crucial depth in the bullpen heading into the postseason.
