Dodgers' Joc Pederson: Not cleared to swing bat

Pederson (shoulder) still has not been cleared to swing a bat, J.P. Hoornstra of the Southern California News Group reports.

There was some initial optimism that Pederson could return from the DL immediately following the All-Star break, but that's looking like far from a sure thing with the 24-year-old still shut down from swinging. Pederson figures to ultimately require at least a couple minor league rehab games to prepare for a return to the major league roster. Andrew Toles was brought up Friday to help out in center field in the meantime.
