Mookie Betts of the Los Angeles Dodgers is currently sidelined with a fractured toe and has struggled offensively this season, hitting only .254, a potential career low. Despite an impressive defensive transition to shortstop, he has faced challenges at the plate, with a .207 batting average in his last 15 games. Betts remains uncertain about the reasons for his decline but insists that the position change isn't the cause. The Dodgers rely on his performance as they approach a challenging schedule ahead.
"I'm not sure, man. I wish I knew, then I would answer it. But I don't have any real excuses or anything."
"I mean, you can point to it and try to make it about shortstop, but it's not about shortstop...I had no idea what I was doing. Now, I'm way more confident in how I show up and prepare each and every day."
