CONCERN: Los Angeles Dodgers BRUTAL ROAD TRIP | Shohei Ohtani RESUMES THROWING

The Los Angeles Dodgers watch their NL West lead shrink after rough road trip, where they lost 5 of 6 against the Cubs and DBacks.

Harry Ruiz and Travis Rodgers analyze the Dodgers’ recent skid, cooling bats, and late-inning bullpen struggles, with Edwin Diaz struggling in the closer role and Justin Wrobleski allowing more home runs. The conversation explores Shohei Ohtani’s progress returning to the mound, Skubal and Snell’s upcoming starts against the Kansas City Royals, and how early-season success cushions the current slump. Key discussion points include Mookie Betts and Teoscar Hernandez’s performance dips, lineup inconsistencies, management of Ohtani’s pitching return, and postseason rotation scenarios for Yamamoto, Skubal, and Glasnow.

Will the Dodgers’ star-studded rotation and returning health ignite the lineup before October? All that and more on today’s episode of Locked On Dodgers!
