Mookie Betts is sidelined due to illness, which has impacted his participation in the Los Angeles Dodgers' exhibition games against the Yomiuri Giants in Japan. Manager Dave Roberts confirmed Betts has lost weight and is focusing on hydration, while also attempting workouts to improve his condition. Despite concerns, doctors allowed Betts to travel with the team. His participation in the upcoming Tokyo Series remains uncertain, but there is hope for his fitness ahead of Opening Day as he prepares for a pivotal season at shortstop.
Betts has not played in a game since March 9. Despite being ill, he was not in danger of missing the trip to Japan.
Roberts indicated optimism regarding Betts’ fitness, stating, 'We'll see how these days go before we even think about making a decision for Opening Day.'
