The best of the 161 major leagues in the cowshed! Dodgers head coach admits "concern"

The Los Angeles Dodgers are currently 25-13 and tied with the Detroit Tigers in the middle of the league for the first place in the major leagues, but this excellent record does not mean that the defending champion has no problems, and the current Dodgers cowpen has eaten 161 innings to the top of the major leagues, and head coach Dave Roberts (Dave Roberts) has expressed concern that overusing the cowpen and starting pitchers who can't shoot long innings to maintain the record will not be the way to stay in the long run.

The Dodgers have suffered a large number of injuries so far this season, and many of the main players in the team, including the lineman and the shooter, have been sidelined due to injuries and seem to have no hope of returning in the short term.

Looking back at last year's regular season, the Dodgers also entered the playoffs with overworked bullpen and only three pitchers who could serve as starters, and although they eventually won the championship, if they faced a similar situation again, it could be difficult to replicate the road to the championship.

The disengagement of starting ace pitcher Tyler Glasnow and Sejan left pitcher Blake Snell forced the Dodgers to resort to the "Cowshed Wheel War" tactic, but it also added to the burden on the cowshed, and injuries and cowpen overwork were intertwined and vicious.

The Dodgers Cowshed currently tops the league with a total of 161 innings pitched, and the starting pitchers eat only 167 innings, the fewest in the league. Head coach Roberts admits that over-use of the bullpen and starting pitchers who can't pitch long innings to maintain the record is not going to be a long-term solution, and we are still trying to manage the health of those starting pitchers, but at the same time, we have to consider the burden of the bullpen and try to stagger the play and manage the use of key moments, stressing that "we definitely don't want to be the team with the most innings pitched in the bullpen in the league".
