Dave Roberts hopeful Mookie Betts returns sooner than expected
""I would take the under on that," Roberts said on SportsNet LA. "But as far as putting a timeline, I'm really hesitant right now because they are tricky.""
""I think early on, just kind of trying to figure out what initiated it - which we didn't really know where the pain was - so then kind of hearing oblique, it gives you a little something in your stomach," Roberts said. "But talking to Mookie, I felt a little bit more reassured today.""
""He's actually in better spirits," Roberts said. "Obviously disappointed, but just the way he feels [Sunday] and I think he's had some dealings with that before, and said it's better than he recalls in past experience. So that was encouraging.""
Mookie Betts has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to a right oblique strain. The recovery timeline for such injuries typically ranges from one month to six weeks. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts remains optimistic about Betts' return, despite the injury being concerning. Betts reportedly suffered the injury during a check swing. He has faced health issues in recent seasons, but Roberts noted that Betts is in better spirits despite the setback.
