Roki Sasaki from Dodgers has been dealing with shoulder injuries for several weeks, says Dave Roberts

The version of Roki Sasaki, which we saw with the Los Angeles Dodgers, is not the same pitcher that we saw in fire in his local japan.

Sasaki was known for the fact that they routinely pumped fast balls in the upper 90s – and even north of 100 miles per hour.

While we occasionally touched 97-98 miles per hour, his fastball was unusual in the 90s away from his performance in the World Baseball classic classic a few years ago.

As Jack Harris the Los Angeles Times Chronic, something was wrong with Sasaki. It was finally known that he had had to do with shoulder pain for weeks, and only recently the Dodgers became aware of this. As a competitor who is Sasaki, he wanted to enforce it. In view of the investment that LA made in the Starlet, he was placed on the IL to rest his shoulder.

“There was certainly compensation from him, and his delivery was probably affected, and everything he wanted to compete and help us,” said manager Dave Roberts on Tuesday. “Although we appreciate him that he is trying to fight through what is great, we wanted to get some scans to know what we have to do.”

Some believed that Sasaki's speed drop was initially an attempt to get a better command. This is an area in which he has to fight at the beginning of his great league career. However, this was not the case.

“And although Sasaki's command of throwing has improved somewhat at least, both he and he and he as well as [pitching coach Mark] Prior insisted that his bike was deliberately not felled, ”Harris wrote recently.

This is undoubtedly a difficult situation for the Dodgers from a staff. Tyler Glasnow and Blake Snell got out the way with their own injuries. Tony Gonsolin recently returned to the Ball Club and Clayton Kershaw will soon follow. A parade of pitchers between the Great League, the small leagues and the waiver wires has already been bent, and it is only in mid -May.

The last thing the Dodgers needs is a serious long-term violation of your valuable pitching view. The word “view” is used because it was well known that Sasaki was far from a finished product. We saw an insight into the dominance, although sound still has to be shaped here.

From now on La can only wait and hope that the injury is not bad.
