The Los Angeles Dodgers could soon welcome back starting pitcher Blake Snell and reliever Blake Treinen, as they are reportedly moving toward a return after lengthy stints on the injured list.

Snell (shoulder) threw two simulated innings against hitters on Saturday, while Treinen tossed one inning against hitters, per MLB.com. According to the report, both are expected to begin rehab assignments early next week.

Both Snell (shoulder) and Treinen (forearm) landed on the 60-day IL earlier this season.

A two-time Cy Young Award winner, Snell has appeared in two games this year after signing a five-year, $182 million contract with the Dodgers in the offseason. In those two starts, the 32-year-old left-hander went 1-0 with a 2.00 ERA and four strikeouts over nine innings.

A 10-year MLB veteran of the Tampa Bay Rays, San Diego Padres and San Francisco Giants, Snell has gone 77-58 with a 3.18 ERA in 213 starts with 1,372 strikeouts.

Treinen, 37, has appeared in eight games this season and went 0-2 with a 3.38 ERA with 10 strikeouts in eight innings.

A veteran of the Washington Nationals and then-Oakland Athletics before joining the Dodgers in 2020, Treinen has appeared in 507 games, mostly as a reliever. The right-hander has logged 570 strikeouts dating back to 2014 with a 43-36 record, 2.79 ERA and 82 saves in 577 appearances, including seven starts.
