Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts confirmed that two-way star Shohei Ohtani will be placed on the 15-day injured list due to right-arm discomfort, with the team calling up top prospect Josue De Paula to fill the designated-hitter role.
Ohtani's Arm Discomfort Triggers IL Placement
Shohei Ohtani has missed six of the past seven games because of discomfort in his right arm, prompting the Dodgers to place him on the 15-day injured list. As a two-way player, the rule requires a minimum 15-day absence, meaning Ohtani cannot return until at least Sept. 23, backdated to his last appearance on Monday. Roberts said putting Ohtani on the IL was 'the right thing to do,' adding, 'We tried to kick the can as much as we could.'
Ohtani acknowledged Monday that he would 'most likely' not pitch again this season, having not thrown since July 3 due to left-knee soreness that flared again on Aug. 28. His offensive production has also dipped, with only seven hits and 22 strikeouts over his past 54 at-bats, raising concerns about his readiness for the postseason. Roberts noted that if it were a postseason game tomorrow, Ohtani would be in the lineup.
De Paula Called Up to Take Over DH Role
The Dodgers are calling up Josue De Paula from Double-A to play designated hitter, with the 21-year-old joining the team Friday for a seven-game trip through Miami and Cincinnati. De Paula is expected to get most of the playing time vacated by Ohtani over the next 11 games and was rated the 10th-best prospect in ESPN's updated rankings last month. He was signed out of the Dominican Republic for slightly less than $400,000 in 2022 and has been slashing.303/.401/.547 with 27 home runs and 31 stolen bases in 124 games.
De Paula has been a key part of the Dodgers' farm system, breezing past the Dominican Summer League and both levels of A-ball in his first four years in the organization. The Dodgers refused to include him in trade talks for Tarik Skubal this summer, seeing him as an impact player in their lineup in the near future. Evaluators believe his bat is major league ready right now, making him an ideal replacement for Ohtani at the plate.
Dodgers Look to Maximize Ohtani's Postseason Potential
Roberts expressed confidence that the time off will allow Ohtani to recover sufficiently for the postseason, stating, 'Is it going to be 100%? Probably not. But I do think, with this time that we're taking now, he'll be in an adequate spot to finish the season and beyond.' The team plans for Ohtani to take the next few days off to reset his body before starting hitting again to build up for the final days of the regular season. Ohtani has a.902 OPS with 30 home runs and 11 stolen bases this season, but his recent struggles have been a concern.
The Dodgers won 14-1 over the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday night, providing a strong start to their current stretch. Ohtani's injury timeline is critical, as he would have a maximum of five regular-season games to get ready for the playoffs. Roberts emphasized that the team is taking the necessary steps to ensure Ohtani is in the best possible condition when the postseason begins, even if it means sacrificing some regular-season games.
