Jason Schmidt : September 1st, 2008, 9:25 pm est
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
