The Los Angeles Dodgers will be without superstar Shohei Ohtani, who has been placed on the injured list after missing six of the last seven games. In his absence, the Dodgers are calling up top prospect Josue De Paula, who will primarily serve as the designated hitter but may also play some outfield. De Paula has had an impressive season in Double-A, boasting a .303/.401/.547 line with 27 home runs and 31 stolen bases. As the Dodgers prepare for the playoffs, they hope Ohtani will return in time while De Paula is expected to make an immediate impact starting against the Miami Marlins.
