Grandal (forearm) is expected to be active by the Dodgers' home opener Tuesday, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.
The 27-year-old has been rehabbing in Triple-A Oklahoma City, but manager David Roberts stated that he will likely join the team next Tuesday. A healthy Grandal is one of the best offensive catchers in baseball, as his performance in the first half of last season demonstrated. Until he returns, A.J. Ellis and Austin Barnes will continue to share time behind the dish, with Barnes likely getting sent down upon his activation.
