Mookie Betts Out of Dodgers' Tokyo Series Due to Illness
Dodgers shortstop Mookie Betts will miss the season-opening Tokyo Series against the Cubs due to a lingering illness that has caused him to lose nearly 15 pounds. Manager Dave Roberts indicated that Betts is feeling better but is still recovering from dehydration and fatigue, which could increase the risk of soft tissue injuries. The team is considering flying him back to Los Angeles early to facilitate his recovery, prioritizing his health over the initial games of the season. Despite his absence, Betts is expected to be ready for the Dodgers' domestic opener on March 27. Miguel Rojas will take over shortstop duties in his stead. The decision to allow Betts to travel to Tokyo is now being questioned, as his illness prevented him from participating in key exhibition games prior to the series.
