The Los Angeles Dodgers faced injuries affecting key players like Tyler Glasnow, Michael Kopech, and Blake Snell. Michael Kopech had surgery for a torn meniscus, leading to his move to the 60-day injured list. While Kopech initially downplayed the concern related to his knee, stating he was pain-free, the precautionary measure aimed to prevent future issues. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts supported this decision and expressed optimism for Kopech's return before the season ends, noting he would be eligible for activation on August 27.
Michael Kopech had surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee. That's why he was moved to 60-day IL. Still expected back before end of season.
I was pain-free, and going on the IL was more of a precautionary decision to protect against further trouble and potentially compromising my mechanics.
Putting him on the IL was smart to get ahead of it. I don't think it will be a long-term situation.
Kopech is not eligible to be activated until Wednesday, Aug. 27. It stands to reason Kopech's right knee issues will resolve soon.
