News: The Dodgers are not expecting Jason Schmidt (shoulder) or Brad Penny (shoulder) to return this season.

Jason Schmidt (shoulder) has been shut down for the rest of the season. Schmidt was unable to return from the shoulder surgery he underwent 15 months ago. He had been rehabbing at Triple-A Las Vegas in hopes of returning as a reliever this season. Manager Joe Torre wouldn't say exactly what went wrong, but the team's website hints that there's a chance Schmidt will need another operation.Source: Dodgers.mlb.com
News: The Sports Xchange reports that Giants SP Jason Schmidt started and pitched one inning on a rehabilitation assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas against Colorado Springs on Friday. Schmidt allowed no runs, no hits and one walk. He will pitch another inning on Monday for the 51s, then possibly be activated as a reliever for the season's final month.
