Though it still appears likely, the Dodgers stepped back from an earlier report that Stephen Fife would come off the disabled list in time to start Sunday's series finale against the Cubs. Manager Don Mattingly spoke hypothetically prior to Saturday's game about the team's plans, however, hinting that Fife is still a possibility for Sunday.
"If we push them back, there's no other reason than to give everybody an extra day," Mattingly said, via MLB.com. "We want to give guys extra days when we can. Hypothetically, this would be a good time."
If Fife is activated Sunday, he would bump Zack Greinke to Monday's game against the Cardinals, though that announcement is not expected to come until prior to Sunday's game.
