Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Tuesday that it "makes a lot of sense" for Grove (groin) to be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Saturday against the Yankees, though an official decision hasn't been made yet, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.
Grove has been on the IL since April 21 with a groin strain, but he recently made a second rehab start at Triple-A Oklahoma City and appears to be ready to help an injury-riddled Dodgers rotation. The right-hander has struggled to an 8.44 ERA over his first four starts of the season with the big club, but the Dodgers still may view Grove as a better option at the back end of the rotation than Gavin Stone (14.40 ERA, 3.00 WHIP in three starts).
