The Los Angeles Dodgers are grappling with injury woes as the regular season approaches, significantly affecting their bullpen capacity. Key players like Brusdar Graterol, Evan Phillips, and Michael Kopech are sidelined, with new developments including prospect Edgardo Henriquez, who sustained a left foot injury away from the field. Despite his potential, Henriquez will be missing from the opening roster due to a metatarsal injury that could keep him out for up to six weeks, undermining the Dodgers' plans for a strong start to the season.
"Right-hander Edgardo Henriquez was wearing a walking boot on his left foot in the clubhouse before Tuesday's workout. Roberts said Henriquez injured a metatarsal in the foot and won't be ready for the season."
"Roberts did not share details of how Henriquez suffered the injury, calling it 'a mishap' that did not occur on a baseball field."
"Given the rash of injuries to relief pitchers and Henriquez's potential, he was likely among the top candidates to be included on the Dodgers' Opening Day roster."
"Roberts indicated Henriquez is due to miss at least one month and potentially up to six weeks."
