Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters Wednesday that the team is shutting down All-Star pitcher Blake Snell from throwing after he suffered what appears to be a setback in his recovery.

Snell was supposed to throw a bullpen session on Wednesday, but has instead been shut down from throwing for the time being.

He may go for more imaging when the team returns to Los Angeles on Thursday or Friday.

“Part of the messaging from us to Blake is, it’s about later on in the season,” Roberts said. “

And if there’s any type of discomfort, let’s not try to fight through it.” Snell, 32, signed a five-year, $182 million deal with the Dodgers this offseason.

He made just two starts for L.A. so far this season, allowing two earned runs (but seven total runs) across nine innings of work.

He has just four strikeouts to eight walks and 10 hits. Snell got off to a slow start last year, and while he didn’t want to use it as an excuse, he hinted at his late arrival to spring training being the reason for it.

Snell didn’t sign with the San Francisco Giants until mid-March, preventing him from having a normal spring.

This year, he had a normal spring and then some, as he signed with the Dodgers all the way back in November.

Nevertheless, Snell finds himself right back on the injured list with no clear timeline to return.

However, just a month into the season, they’ve already been forced to piece things together, and even have a scheduled bullpen game on Wednesday.

Tony Gonsolin is nearing a return to action, while Clayton Kershaw is on rehab assignment but not eligible to return until mid-May.

Shohei Ohtani remains nowhere near a return to action, while Snell now appears to be a ways away from getting back.

As of the beginning of this week, Snell noted he still felt some pain in his shoulder here and there but wasn’t too concerned with the injury.

“I just want to pitch. Am I worried about it? No,” Snell said. “I was worried about it when I went on the IL but not any more. It feels way better.” Just a few days later, that doesn’t appear to be the case.
