Shohei Ohtani missed two games in a row for just the second time as a Dodger, and the first since paternity leave for the birth of his first kid in April 2025. Now the Dodgers need to get their superstar right before even thinking about the postseason.

Plus notes on September call-ups, Toescar Hernández showing signs of life, and more.

Dodgers had a rough road trip, getting swept by the Braves to lose the season tiebreaker to Atlanta, which could affect playoff seeding. And Shohei Ohtani’s return to pitching is on hold as he deals with knee and biceps issues.

Offense was the culprit in dropping four of six games in Atlanta and Detroit, scoring just 11 runs in the first 5 games of the trip, ending a disappointing August that saw the Dodgers go just 13-14 while averaging under four runs per game.

Plus, Tyler Glasnow was fantastic in his return from the injured list. Will Smith is back this week. Blake Treinen and Justin Wrobleski could soon follow. Roki Sasaki landed on the injured list with a blister. And rosters expand from 26 to 28 on September 1.

The Dodgers rebounded from a tough stretch with sweeps of both the Rockies and Pirates. Now they head on the road to face the NL East-leading Braves and then the Tigers.

Blake Snell has looked great in three starts since returning from the injured list. Yoshinobu Yammoto and Tarik Skubal pitched like aces on the homestand.

Tyler Glasnow is back Tuesday. Shohei Ohtani, who hit his 30th home run last week, might pitch an inning on Sunday and could be stretched out to 5-6 innings by October.

Andy Pages will miss 4-5 weeks after a 100-mph fastball broke his left hand, with Alek Thomas filling in in center field for now. Plus rehabbing notes on Will Smith, Edwin Díaz, and Blake Treinen.
