Dave Roberts Confirms No Return Timeline for Roki Sasaki

“There are no plans to bring him back to the majors for now,” Roberts said after Sasaki’s rough Triple-A outing where he allowed four runs and two homers. His fastball averaged 94.4 mph, down from the 100+ that made him MLB’s top international signing. With Sasaki sidelined, Clayton Kershaw, Shohei Ohtani, and Tyler Glasnow must shoulder Los Angeles’ playoff push.
