Dodgers outfielder Andy Pages begins batting progression after left hand surgery

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Andy Pages is beginning his recovery process after undergoing surgery on his left hand. Pages has been sidelined since fracturing the hand on August 21 and is now pain-free. According to Dodgers insider David Vassegh, the team expects him to start a swing progression in the coming days. The club aims to have him available for the postseason as it manages an ailing offense. Because the injury occurred late in the season, Pages may not have access to minor league rehab games before a potential return to the major league roster. He posted a.797 OPS over 128 games this season before the injury. The organization relies on his return to bolster scoring production for the upcoming postseason push.
