"You don't think we'd want Snell to open the season right now? It's so not true. We don't like not having our starters pitch."
"That is a misperception. I think people assume that we have a plan of when such-and-such pitcher is going to miss time."
"There are obviously fatigue injuries, and there are acute injuries. Acute injuries are hard to do much about."

The Los Angeles Dodgers are poised for a potential three-peat but must navigate a demanding 162-game season and possible playoffs. With an aging roster, manager Dave Roberts faces challenges in balancing player workloads. The team experienced significant injuries in 2025, impacting both the rotation and infield. Despite accusations of exaggerating injuries, Roberts and Andrew Friedman assert that managing player health is crucial and not premeditated. They emphasize the unpredictability of injuries, particularly distinguishing between acute and fatigue-related issues.
