"Will Klein is in the Dodgers' clubhouse. No moves have been announced, Dave Roberts said last night that it was possible Michael Kopech might be a little banged up.- Sonja Chen (@SonjaMChen) September 19, 2025 "I don't know if he's banged up," Roberts said of Kopech after another pour outing from the hard-throwing righty. "It might be a shoulder. It might be an elbow. He's obviously coming off knee surgery and just has a hard time syncing his throw up.""
""I love Kopey. I know he's doing everything he can," Roberts said. "But it's just for me, it's, you've got to win games. You've got to give your defense a chance to make plays. The strike-throwing has just been difficult and inconsistent. That's a hard question, I think right now. Right where we're at, guys have got to - we've seen enough of a sample of guys that we've got to go with the most trusted guys right now.""
Will Klein is in the Dodgers' clubhouse at Dodger Stadium and could indicate a roster move, though no transaction has been announced. Dave Roberts said Michael Kopech might be a little banged up after another poor outing, citing possible shoulder or elbow trouble and difficulty syncing his throw following knee surgery. Kopech has made 14 appearances with a 2.45 ERA across 11 innings, issuing 13 walks and recording 12 strikeouts, including eight walks over his last four outings. Roberts emphasized the need for consistent strike-throwing and indicated a preference for the team's most trusted pitchers heading into the postseason.
