The Los Angeles Dodgers’ season is set to break several records with dominance on both offense and defense, where their star Shohei Ohtani is expected to participate in both ways, although on the mound they are still taking the process slowly.
Ohtani was projected from the preseason to pitch for the Dodgers for the first time sometime in May and the process is on track, after he had his second bullpen session with 26 pitches on Saturday, prior to the game in which the California nine avenged themselves on the Philadelphia Phillies, after Friday’s unbeaten streak was snatched from them, to win 3-1, in a game in which Japanese Roki Sasaki went without a decision after pitching four innings, and the win went to reliever Anthony Banda with one inning of work.
Shohei Ohtani sparks intrigue with a mysterious celebration with the Dodgers and Mookie Betts
Ohtani is on track to recover from right elbow surgery in September 2023 that sidelined him for the entire 2024 season, but manager Dave Roberts is beginning to lay the groundwork for his return.
“It’s one week, but there’s also the middle week, where he takes the mound on a Thursday,” Dave Roberts said of the strategy to get Ohtani back and added, “I think it’s more about trying to keep him on a similar seven-day schedule, and see what the schedule would be like coming out, and build from there.”
Ohtani will cause a six-man rotation for the Dodgers
Once Ohtani is ready to pitch, the Dodgers will be able to implement the plan of a six-man rotation, with which they intend to take care of injuries to their players, who have had an outstanding performance with only one loss that was the responsibility of Japanese Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who with a six-inning effort, left the game down 1-0 against the Phillies.
In addition to Yamamoto, the Dodgers rotation includes two-time Cy Young winner Blake Snell, Tyler Glasnow, and Roki Sasaki, who has struggled in his first few games, but is in a learning process towards his consolidation.
Dave Roberts has Dustin May and Tony Gonsolin as other reliable starters, while he gets veteran Clayton Kershaw back, so when Ohtani is ready, there should be no problems for the six-man rotation.

Hořkosladký večer? Neřeším to. Hlavní byl postup, říkal kouč Sparty
Riga (od našeho zpravodaje) – Čeští fanoušci u odvetného zápasu často skřípali zuby. Sparta po úvodní půlhodině, kdy soupeře jasně přehrávala, postupně ustoupila do defenzivy a hlavně bránila náskok. Po přestávce inkasovala a až do posledních minut se třásla o postupový výsledek.Výkon nenadchl ani sparťanské příznivce v hledišti. Trenér Brian Priske je po závěrečném hvizdu musel sám vyhecovat k větší radosti. „Doufám, že jsou rádi. Dali jsme jim šest evropských zápasů,“ připomněl na tiskové konferenci dánský kouč.Trenére, jak moc si vážíte postupu?Jsem šťastný a hrdý. Mám velkou radost kvůli hráčům, realizačnímu týmu i klubu, že budeme působit v Evropě. Je to pro nás zásadní jak z finančního hlediska, tak i z pohledu rozvoje kádru, který potřebuje hrát evropské zápasy. Čím víc podobně náročných utkání odehrajeme, tím poroste i hodnota hráčů. Doufám, že radost mají i fanoušci, kteří během zhruba pěti měsíců dostanou šest evropských duelů.Tým čelí mnoha absencím. Bylo složité sestavit základní jedenáctku?Vždycky je […]
‘What He Got, You Can’t Teach’: Will Matthew Golden Be a Game-Changer for Packers?
<!--> [--> Henry McKenna NFL Reporter <!--> --> GREEN BAY, Wis. — Everyone knew Jordan Love, who's dealing with a left thumb injury, would get only 12 snaps during joint practices between the Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks. And so there was Matthew Golden, the team’s first-round pick, on the field with the QB1 for a rare opportunity to get a genuinely competitive rep against another team.On the second snap, Love’s pass went Golden’s way. The rookie wideout got his hands on it. But the ball fell to the ground: a drop. Love targeted Golden two more times, resulting in a pair of pass breakups. So if all a Packers fan saw was that session, he might be saying: This again?!Green Bay, after all, had the second-highest drop rate (9.7%) and third-most drops (33) in the league last season, per […]

Micah Parsons reportedly filed grievance over his 2025 salary amid messy negotiations with Cowboys
Though this all may not matter if he gets a new deal, Micah Parsons filed a grievance with the league earlier this year regarding his 2025 salary.Parsons, according to both Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio and The Dallas Morning News’ Calvin Watkins, filed a lawsuit earlier this year regarding his fifth-year option salary with the Cowboys. Parsons believes that his salary for the season should be $24 million, while both the Cowboys and the NFL have his salary slated to be $21.324 million.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisement[Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season]Though that’s a relatively small amount, especially considering what he’s angling for extension-wise, the issue is over his position.
