Dodgers | Blake Hawksworth update

Los Angeles Dodgers RP Blake Hawksworth (elbow) resumed playing catch this week after being delayed by complications following elbow surgery. Hawksworth underwent what should have been relatively minor arthroscopic surgery on his right elbow Jan. 11 to remove a bone spur and scar tissue. But a post-surgical infection developed that required a second cleansing procedure and powerful antibiotics, setting back his recovery. Hawksworth said he does not know of a timetable for throwing off a mound or in a game. He is expected to remain in Arizona for extended spring training.
