Ohtani Out, De Paula In | Entertainment and Celebrity News

Shohei Ohtani’s Dodgers stint hits pause as he lands on the injured list with right biceps inflammation, sidelined for at least 15 days — the first IL trip since joining LA. The team’s hopes? He returns in time for the postseason push. To fill his DH void, top prospect Josue De Paula makes his MLB debut, slotting in seventh and ready to deliver with elite hitting chops. Pitcher Eric Lauer heads to the 60-day IL to make room. With the Dodgers locked in for a division title and chasing the best record, this is a pivotal moment — and Ohtani’s focus shifts entirely to bat, no pitching this year. De Paula’s arrival isn’t just a stopgap — it’s a bright spot for a team needing firepower now. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
