Blake Treinen of the Dodgers has been transferred to the 60-day injured list due to forearm tightness, following over two weeks of inactivity. Manager Dave Roberts emphasizes the importance of not rushing Treinen back, especially considering his age and injury history. The team's broader philosophy is to ensure player health for a strong postseason push, leveraging their talented roster depth. This strategic approach allows the Dodgers to manage injuries without compromising performance during the season's initial phases.
"I think with Blake (Treinen), just appreciating the fact that we're going to need him in the second half and beyond, we have time so take the time that way when he gets back, we can just go from there and not look back," Roberts said.
"The franchise is confident enough in the depth built up collectively that injuries and extended IL stints can be mitigated accordingly."
"The most important thing is getting these players healthy for the postseason run. This bigger picture philosophy is something the Dodgers have utilized for years."
