Mookie Betts has been activated by the Dodgers.
Potential Roster Moves
The activation of Betts means the Dodgers will need to make corresponding moves. Options include designating a player for assignment, or sending players to the minor leagues.
Potential candidates to be optioned to the minors are Alex Freeland, or potentially a DFA for Espinal. Another possibility would be to send Kim or Call to the minor leagues.
Speculation on Further Changes
Questions arise about what will happen when Kike Hernandez returns. At that point, someone else will be sent down.
One commentator suggested the team might rest Miguel Rojas on the injured list. However, it was pointed out that players should not be placed on the injured list unless they have a real injury.
Differing Perspectives on Player Performance
Some have discussed Betts’ exit velocities. One person recalled him saying on more than one occasion that he’s never really had top-tier exit velocities.
Appreciation for Detail
One person expressed appreciation for the website, highlighting the level of detail provided and wanting the site to continue to be excellent.
They noted that two new writers have been omitting basic and highly relevant information and that they will never break the pattern if nobody makes them aware of it.
Another person stated they put a lot of time, effort and factual information in their many posts and receive no compensation for doing so.
Dodgers’ Opponent Questioned
One commenter asked which team the Dodgers would be playing when Betts is activated. The Fever app indicates it is the San Francisco Giants.
