Overview
- Pages suffered a fractured left hand after being hit by a pitch in late August and had a compression screw placed soon after to speed healing.
- He has started light swing work, including hitting off a tee, and has told reporters he feels no pain when swinging.
- Manager Dave Roberts said Pages "is coming quickly" and could begin a minor‑league rehab assignment during the team’s upcoming road trip if he stays pain‑free.
- If Pages is cleared, the Dodgers are likely to reshape the roster and infield alignment, with struggling infielder Alex Freeland the probable candidate to be optioned.
- Pages enters rehab as a 2026 All‑Star and key contributor, and the club is prioritizing a cautious, stepwise recovery to protect his swing mechanics and ensure playoff readiness.
