SAN DIEGO — Dave Roberts provided updates on three injured players on Monday afternoon prior to the Dodgers’ game against the San Diego Padres.

• Howie Kendrick (calf) “said he felt great” yesterday, Roberts said. The second baseman will partake in live batting practice in the coming days, and Roberts remains “hopeful that he’ll be ready for the home opener.” The Dodgers host the Arizona Diamondbacks a week from Tuesday.

• Roberts is also hopeful that Yasmani Grandal (sore right forearm) can be ready in time for the home opener.

• Hyun-Jin Ryu is scheduled to throw his first live batting practice of the season either Thursday or Friday, Roberts said. Last week, Roberts said this would take place Thursday for sure, but Ryu hasn’t had a setback in his shoulder rehab. “Ryu feels good,” Roberts said.
