Dodgers News
Roki Sasaki's blister on his right middle finger is the latest blow to a Dodgers rotation that has already faced its fair share of adversity this season. After exiting early in a narrow 6-5 loss to the Braves, Sasaki's placement on the 15-day injured list raises concerns about depth as the Dodgers navigate the stretch run with an 80-52 record. While the team is riding high with a 6-1 week fueled by some hot bats like Max Muncy and Shohei Ohtani, the looming question is whether unheralded players can continue to step up amid this turmoil. On the media front, Jeff Passan has found himself in hot water with fans over his past defense of the organization, further complicating the public's perception as this drama unfolds. With the Braves on deck again, the Dodgers need to regain their winning form quickly.
