Edman returns for Dodgers, but Smith scratched due to hand

Los Angeles – Tommy adman The injured returned from the list on Wednesday, due to which Los angeles doors‘Start the lineup for the first time in a while. And then, not more than 15 minutes before the first pitch against the last location Colorado Rockies, Will SmithOnce again the right hand of the right hand increased, indicated Ben Rartvedt Scramble to take your place behind the plate.

Smith was sitting out of a series of previous weekends in Baltimore, recovering from an injury to the hand that absorbed the tip of a dishonesty, but the scans came back negative. The doors hope that Thursday will allow Smith, who is batting. San francisco giants In his next series.

“Not extremely worried,” Roberts said after another 9-0 Victory, “But we got to wrap that swelling.”

Adman’s return, after sitting out for the last five weeks, due to the recurrence of a perfect ankle, the alignment of the doors may seem like a full force. He started and pushed in the center area Andy page To leave, with Teser hernandez Right and struggle Michael Conforto Accused on the bench.

Roberts said that Edman will get most of his start against his left-arm pitcher-like Wednesday starter Kyle freeland – And that Conforto will still be in the lineup when the doseers faced Writhis.

Edman is a switch-Hitter that has performed better this season against the Left (.737 OPS) compared to Wright (.647), but is navigating a down year, batting .228/.281/.396 in 86 sports. Their presence should at least improve the defense of the team, although the ideal setup has pages in the correct area due to their better arm strength.

Hernandez has classified as one of the worst rights people in the game this season, with minus-nine outs above average, but Roberts left them there due to comfort in the situation-while saying that their defense has improved late.

“I’m with it,” Roberts said about flipping the page and hernandez. “Obviously like Andy on the right, like a hand. Teo ended the season in the left area last year [after Mookie Betts returned to right]So we have shown that we can win a championship with him in the left area. Not there yet, but thinking about it. And it is very accidental on how Tommy looks. ,

Dosters may also be with the possibility of having Roki Sasaki Help their bang bulpane. Sasaki, the prized Japanese pitching sensation, who struggled in its first season in Major, made an encouraging debut on Tuesday for the Dojers’s Triple-e Oklahoma City affiliation, with his fastball at 98.3 mph and reached about four ticks and 100 mpHas in comparison to his previous start.

Sasaki was accused of having three runs, three hits and four walks, but most of the damage came after the fourth innings. The impressed that the dujers’ officials had not only displayed for his four-seam fastball, but also of his splitter and cutter, after which the slider was later replaced.

Sasaki, who has earned five, is expected to meet with the doors officials about his next step this week during a rehabilitation assignment. The rotation of the doseers is full, six is ​​performing well in the beginning, but the team is in dire need of late help in sports.

“We have to see it here,” Roberts said when asked if he believes Sasaki could be an effective reliever. “We still have time, but we are going to see it clearly here. We have got a decision to make a decision in some time, where we are going to move here in the next few weeks.”

The 30 -year -old Edman had been sitting out for a few weeks in early May because he was hurt on the same ankle and struggled on returning, inspiring ideas that he could return very quickly. This time, he played in five rehabilitation games for Oklahoma City, either in the center area or on a designated hitter. Roberts wants to see Edman wandering in sports before determining how he will divide his time between the center territory and the second base, which essentially determines whether infielder Miguel rosas Or outfielder Alex call Starts against the leftists.

“I think they are probably now about the same,” Edman either said about his ability to play the situation. “It’s not really [where] Will feel better than each other. I think I will not really know until I play both positions, but I think the biggest thing is just the first step. I think I will feel a better feeling for this when I have to do a hard drama from a couple from there. ,

Edman, whose activism inspired Travelman outfielder Justin Dean To be sent to a minor league, the Doseers are the latest in a string of players to return IL after the third baseman Max Munsi And left hand relief Alex Vesia Earlier this week.

Out of backup catcher Dalton ran awayWhich should return to a point next week, the doors are currently fulfilled towards the position-player. His crime has surprisingly overwhelmed this season, especially recently, finished 24th in Major at a per game run since the beginning of July. They hope that now is the time when it will finally begin to turn.

Roberts said: “I think we are all waiting for our people to come back to health and see what we look as a Ballaklab that we all imagined.”
