Luckily, that shoulder responded well to a cortisone injection. Wolf reports that the spike removed most of the pain—most, not all, which is a key takeaway. Wolf should be back for his next start, and he may well look good, but over the longer term, the quick fix and incomplete cure has to worry the Dodgers. Don't be surprised if he needs another cortisone shot before the season ends.Story Link: Under the Knife:

UTK: Kuo's Prognosis
From the guru of Baseball sports injuries, Will Carroll of Under The Knife, provides his opinion of Kuo's injury.
He's been shut down with inflammation in his pitching shoulder. There's not much information beyond this, but the symptoms (inflammation and pain in the back of his shoulder) could be many things, from a cuff problem to a labrum tear to simple tendinitis. There's no use guessing here; the value is in knowing that he'll be shut down for much of April. Watch to see if he can get back to a throwing program by mid-month. If this stretches into May, we'll know it was one of the worse injuries.UTK Link:
