"One of the most notable Dodgers not on the Wild Card roster was future Hall of Famer Clayton Kershaw, as many around the baseball world would love to see the three-time Cy Young award winner before he calls it a career. Finally, Roberts weighed in on if 23-year-old Roki Sasaki might just be the Dodgers new closer moving forward. With apparent bullpen issues seemingly all season long, the young right-hander might just prove to be someone that the team can trust as October soldiers on."
Tommy Edman was held out of the Wild-Card-clinching Game 2 and manager Dave Roberts provided an injury update. Clayton Kershaw was notably absent from the Wild Card roster, prompting roster-prediction discussion for the NLDS against the Philadelphia Phillies. The Dodgers are considering 23-year-old Roki Sasaki as a potential postseason closer after showing poise, and president Andrew Friedman cited Sasaki's World Baseball Classic experience and pressure handling. The Dodgers have faced apparent bullpen issues all season and Roberts continues searching for reliable relievers. Other roster notes include Mookie Betts spending the full season at shortstop and Ben Rortvedt filling a key role in Will Smith's absence.
