Roki Sasaki To Be Activated Wednesday, Pitch Out Of Bullpen
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said on Tuesday that the team will activate right-handed pitcher Roki Sasaki (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list on Wednesday. He also said that the 23-year-old rookie will pitch out of the bullpen, rather than return to the starting rotation. Sasaki dealt with injuries and limited workloads in his career in Japan, so the Dodgers will have him finish the season as a reliever. Sasaki struggled in his rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City and put up poor numbers with the Dodgers before his injury. Sasaki came into the season as a high-end fantasy prospect, but his 4.72 ERA, 1.49 WHIP, and 15.6% strikeout rate will carry plenty of question marks into 2026, as well as health and role issues.
