Shohei Ohtani Returns From Injury and Is the DH as the Dodgers Reshuffle the Top of the Order
- The Los Angeles Dodgers activated two-way star Shohei Ohtani from the 15-day injured list prior to Wednesday's home game against the San Diego Padres, with the slugger immediately rejoining the lineup as designated hitter.
- Manager Dave Roberts cleared Ohtani to return after he missed time with right biceps inflammation and knee soreness; Roberts assessed the slugger's health at an eight or nine out of 10 despite lingering neck issues.
- To accommodate Ohtani's return, the Dodgers optioned rookie outfielder Josue De Paula to Triple-A Oklahoma City, though the team is considering the prospect for a postseason roster spot.
- Additionally, pitcher Tarik Skubal was activated from the bereavement list ahead of Wednesday's contest, while the club cleared roster space by optioning reliever Kyle Hurt to the minor leagues.
- Los Angeles enters the final five days of the regular season chasing a third consecutive World Series title, with the designated hitter back in the lineup as the team pursues a first-round bye.
