Los Angeles Dodgers manager Don Mattingly is not sure when pitcher Zack Greinke will return from his calf injury.
While Greinke said he would have pitched though the pain, the Dodgers have continued to take it easy with Greinke who they signed to a large contract last offseason.
“We’re still going to be cautious with him,” Mattingly said.
Greinke feels no different than yesterday. Mattingly: "We're still going to be cautious with him." No timetable for return.

It is starting to look like Grinke will not be ready for Opening Day in Australia, though after his recent comments it is probably for the best if he does not make the trip.
Last seaon Greinke made 28 starts posting a 15-4 record, 2.63 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP.
