Jason Schmidt To The DL

The Los Angeles Dodgers placed Jason Schmidt on the DL with a right shoulder injury.

Who didn't see this coming? Schmidt has had velocity problems all year long and never looked healthy. He was able to put together one quality start since Opening Day, and probably hasn't been healthy since the spring. The Dodgers were probably hoping that rest would allow them to recover the money put into Schmidt this offseason so they could get some sort of value out of him this year.

Fantasy Impact: I can't see this injury not being serious, so unless you're willing to wager a DL spot that he'll recover with rest, drop him. I don't see him having fantasy value again this year.
