The Los Angeles Dodgers have placed Shohei Ohtani on the 15-day injured list due to ongoing left knee soreness and a right biceps strain, aiming to ensure he is healthy for the postseason. Manager Dave Roberts acknowledged the decision was necessary after Ohtani’s struggles, including a .198 batting average since August 8. Prospect Josue De Paula will replace him on the roster, marking his first call-up from Double-A. Despite Ohtani’s injuries, the Dodgers are performing well, winning seven straight games and maintaining a strong position in the standings.
