Dodgers’ bullpen could get a boost from 3 veteran relievers

GLENDALE, Ariz. — The Dodgers’ resources are so deep, they are going to head into the season with a bullpen – and a shadow bullpen ready to step in at some point during the season.

Three experienced relievers with track records of success – Brock Stewart, Brusdar Graterol and Evan Phillips – will open the season on the injured list, working their way back from surgeries.

Stewart and Graterol, both recovering from shoulder surgeries, have progressed far enough in their rehabs to throw off a mound already this spring.
