The Los Angeles Dodgers are getting closer to getting some more of their stars healthy.

The latest is outfielder Cody Bellinger, who, according to Dave Roberts, may return to action by Wednesday.

Bellinger has not played since Aug. 19 due to a sprained ankle. He still comfortably leads the Dodgers with 34 home runs on the season.

Bellinger isn’t the only key player the Dodgers are expecting back soon. Ace lefty Clayton Kershaw was slated to make a rehab start at AAA on Saturday night, and Los Angeles hopes to have him back by the end of the month.
