Padres @ Dodgers - June 18, 2025: The return of Emmet Sheehan + Kim getting starts over Conforto
Briefly

The Los Angeles Dodgers are poised to secure a win in a critical four-game series against the San Diego Padres, bolstered by the return of pitcher Emmet Sheehan from Tommy John surgery. The lineup features Hyeseong Kim, who has been favored over Michael Conforto in the outfield, reflecting manager Dave Roberts' strategy to give Kim more consistent playing time. Additionally, reports suggest that Alexis Díaz's call-up to the main roster is imminent, and a significant development for Los Angeles sports occurred as Mark Walter, Dodgers' owner, acquires the Lakers for a record price of $10 billion.
After five decades of control by the Buss family, the Los Angeles Lakers will be sold to Mark Walter, lead owner of the Dodgers, for at least $10 billion.
Hyeseong Kim is earning the opportunity to get somewhat of a consistent look in the lineup, which saw him starting over Michael Conforto for the Dodgers.
