The Los Angeles Dodgers are preparing for the playoffs, but the Bullpen is still a great concern in October. In response, the organization has made a remarkable movement, changing Roki Sasaki to the Triple-A Bullpen. For Sasaki, the transition has had to do with its willingness to adapt.
“The first part was that he gave the opportunity to accept going to ‘Pen. And then the next part is that he has to act,” said Manager Dave Roberts. “Tonight, he acted. It was really good. And let’s see on Sunday again. And then put the responsibility of the organization to make a decision. In the postseason, there are no roles. Everyone is leverage.”
The Bullpen movement was probably the only Sasaki path to launch in October, since their numbers as a starter had not been strong since he returned from an injury and threw the minors.
“The Dodgers can no longer count on the rookie Roki Sasaki helping them in the section. Their speed is not close to the 102 mph that he threw in Japan. He has thrown 59 rapid balls through his two beginnings of rehabilitation and has generated only a swing-And-Miss,” Bob NightTengale wrote from USA Today.
On Wednesday, Sasaki finally had the opportunity to show his new bullpen role after being activated. According to your performance, it is safe to say that this transition can ensure its place on the postseason list.
“Sasaki, who activated from the 60-day injured list before the game, seemed impressive in a 1-2-3 entry.
