Dodgers' Yoshinobu Yamamoto Says Change in Rest Days Isn't Reason For Struggles
Briefly

Yoshinobu Yamamoto of the Los Angeles Dodgers is experiencing a rough patch, with a 4.46 ERA on five days of rest, compared to an impressive 0.90 ERA when given six days or more. This decline in performance, despite being a Cy Young candidate earlier in the season, has raised concerns. However, Yamamoto insists that he doesn't find shorter rest days problematic. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts acknowledges the struggle but believes it is correctable, emphasizing the importance of getting Yamamoto back to peak form as the team manages injuries in their pitching staff.
"I personally don't feel any issues with shorter rest days. I think I've been spending those five days of preparation wisely."
"I mean, I think the stuff is good. He feels good. I still believe the command is good... it's just an intent part of it."
