The Dodgers have battled injuries to key players all season. However, their starting rotation has been hampered by ailments all year. Shohei Ohtani won’t return to pitching following Tommy John surgery last year. Big free agent addition Yoshinobu Yamamoto has had a long-lasting tricep issue. And Walker Buehler has dealt with hip inflammation.
