Dodgers News: Jason Heyward, Tony Gonsolin Dealing With Injuries After Friday's Loss

The Dodgers dealt with pain on and off the field.

The Dodgers' 11-game winning streak came to a screeching halt on Friday night, thanks to an 11-3 drubbing at the hands of the Miami Marlins.

While the loss was more than enough pain on the field, the Dodgers had even more bad news off the field.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts revealed two injuries after the game, one the team has known about for some time and one that occurred during the game.

Tony Gonsolin, who had by far the worst outing of his career on Friday, has reportedly been dealing with an injury for the last four to six weeks, which has greatly hindered his play. Roberts even said an IL stint could be in his future.

"There have been a couple good ones in there the last six weeks, but overall, just hasn’t been what we’re used to seeing from Tony," Roberts said. "Physically he’s not 100 percent. I think we’re going to circle up with Tony tomorrow and figure out if a blow, a break, getting away from this makes sense."

Gonsolin said the injury is more in his elbow than shoulder, but that the time has been unable to specify exactly what it is.

That's not the only injury, though.

Roberts also revealed that outfielder Jason Heyward was removed from the game due to injury after making a sliding catch. He hurt his hip and is now considered day to day.

For Heyward, it doesn't seem too bad, but definitely could keep him out of both games of Saturday's doubleheader due to Hurricane Hilary.

As for Gonsolin, it sounds like an IL stint could very well be in his future, which would likely be the best for both him and the Dodgers.
