Dodgers relief pitcher Evan Phillips is set to undergo Tommy John surgery next week after experiencing persistent forearm discomfort and will miss the remainder of the season. Despite starting the year on the injured list with a prior rotator cuff injury from last postseason, Phillips had shown promise with seven scoreless appearances in April. Meanwhile, Mookie Betts is listed as day-to-day due to a stubbed toe sustained recently, indicating ongoing health challenges for the team as they face the New York Yankees.
Phillips had initial optimism for a swift return from injury; however, he now undergoes Tommy John surgery, significantly impacting the Dodgers' bullpen this season.
Mookie Betts, who stubbed his toe and was initially expected to play, exemplifies the unpredictability of player health, as he becomes day-to-day after the incident.
