Dodgers' Withrow expecting to miss most of season following Tommy John

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Chris Withrow isn't expecting to play much of a role in 2015. 

The 25-year-old, who continues to rehab from Tommy John surgery, told Ken Gurnick of MLB.com that he's not expecting to be back until the end of the season.

Withrow was in the midst of a productive sophomore season before being diagnosed with a ligament tear in his right elbow in late May. In 20 appearances, the Dodgers 2007 first-round pick posted a 2.95 ERA and 28 strikeouts in 21 1/3 innings. 

He also underwent surgery in December to repair a herniated disk in his back.
