Dodgers news today as Dave Roberts reacts to Shohei Ohtani’s start and the Dodgers loss to the Marlins.

Dodgers news as Roberts said Ohtani wasn’t fully in sync, pointing to command issues and mechanical inconsistencies.

“I don’t think he was completely in sync… there were a lot of misfires.”

Despite that, Roberts gave Ohtani credit for battling through the outing and limiting damage.

“For him to give us six innings and two runs… we should win that game.”

Roberts made it clear the loss came down to missed opportunities offensively, especially in key situations.

“We were not good situationally… that’s what it comes down to.”

He pointed out multiple moments where the Dodgers failed to capitalize, including chances early and late in the game.

“You have chances… and you let them off the hook.”

Roberts also noted the team was too aggressive at times, failing to stick to a plan with runners in scoring position.

“You’re not hitting your pitch… you have to have a plan.”

Even with Shohei Ohtani out of the lineup as a hitter, Roberts emphasized that the offense still had more than enough to win.

“Even without him tonight… we should have won the game.”

He also mentioned a possible physical factor for Ohtani, noting he may have been dealing with some neck tightness during the outing.

Overall, the message from Roberts was clear — Ohtani battled, but execution at the plate cost the Dodgers the game.
