Manager Dave Roberts made the decision to leave Mookie Betts out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Brewers, giving the starting shortstop an opportunity to reset amid a season-long scuffle at the plate.
“In either scenario, a move would allow Betts to return to the outfield, which solves two problems at once. The Dodgers could elect to solve this problem in-house by benching Michael Conforto, moving Betts to right field, and having Miguel Rojas platoon with Hyeseong Kim at shortstop,” they wrote.
