Heyward was scratched from Tuesday's lineup against the Angels due to lower-back tightness.

EDGE Analysis

With two days remaining before Opening Day, it's unclear what impact Heyward's back will have on his availability for Thursday, but the Dodgers should provide more details in the near future. Teoscar Hernandez will shift from left to right field in Heyward's absence, and Chris Taylor will fill the void in left.
