Dodgers face bullpen crisis as Edwin Díaz undergoes elbow surgery
On this episode of The Dodgers Post, Jack Harris and Dylan Hernández break down all the latest Dodgers news -- starting with Monday's announcement that Edwin Díaz is set to undergo elbow surgery that will sideline him until the second half of the season.
The two discuss what happened with Díaz, how concerning his elbow issue is, and the difficulties now facing the Dodgers as they try to navigate the next few months without him. They also evaluate the Dodgers' other closer options, and the larger ramifications Díaz's absence could have on the bullpen and team.
Later, they break down Roki Sasaki's latest start, and how the way he has dealt with early-season struggles have revealed something about his personality.
They also debate whether Shohei Ohtani should return to two-way duties on days he pitches, plus what they are expecting to see in the team's upcoming series against the San Francisco Giants.
Finally, they wrap with one new segment ("Why we hate your city!") and review/make their weekly predictions.
All that and more on this week's episode, as the pair connect in the middle of this Dodgers' road trip.
