Dodgers' Scott Kazmir: Dealing with sore back/neck

Kazmir is dealing with back and neck issues and will be examined Tuesday, Andy McCullough of the LA Times reports.

Analysis:

Kazmir attempted to pitch through the soreness Monday, but lasted just 2.2 innings before being removed, so he'll go for a check-up Tuesday. Kazmir's next scheduled start Saturday is in jeopardy unless or until he gets cleared by team doctors.
