@dylanohernandez @ByJackHarris Maybe Betts back is warning that Yada Sensei’s exercises is not ment for Mookie. His body may not be use to that type of workout.

From @ByJackHarris at Nationals Park:

@katiejwoo @KamBrothers Coincidently, Kim is out of the OKC line up. Opening Day, I saw Mookie doing an exercise with Yada Sensei (Yoshi’s trainer) on his shoulder. Watching that, I could not help but think that would hurt my back, especially if I was not use to doing that exercise.

Mookie Betts (back) will undergo an MRI tonight. Dodgers will wait on test results before making an IL decision, but Dave Roberts said Betts is unlikely to play at least the next couple of days. nytimes.com/athletic/71726…

@ByJackHarris @capostsports If it’s in between of a slider & cutter, do we call it a “slutter.”

Also, ahead of his start tomorrow: Roki Sasaki has a new third pitch, and the early results have been encouraging What to call it — Slider? Cutter? Something in between? — is a different question “Honestly, it depends on the day.” More @capostsports: nypost.com/2026/04/04/spo…

@ByJackHarris Kim is not in the OKC line up tonight.

Whether or not Betts goes on the IL will depend on his MRI results, but Dave Roberts said they will consider bringing a player here tomorrow in case Hyeseong Kim would be the likely choice for that

@ShamsCharania @KamBrothers This Easter week the big Purple Gold Laker in the sky must want the Lakers to tank the rest of the year.

Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 left oblique muscle injury and is out for the remainder of the regular season.

@DodgersNation I hope the exercises Mookie has been picking up from Yoshi’s trainer did not hurt his back.

The Dodgers announced that Mookie Betts was removed from Saturday’s game with right low back pain. Hoping it’s nothing serious. Wishing him a speedy recovery 🙏 #Dodgers #DodgersNation #MookieBetts #MLB

@dodger_daily Dodgers have a small army of top outfielders in their system. Triple A Tibbs, Ehrhard, and Ward Double A Hope, George and DePaula Loons Quintero, Sirota and Davalan If an organization had one of these outfield trio in their organization they would be happy.

Josue DePaula had a hit in 3 official ABs tonight, and also drew a couple of walks. DePaula is off to a hot start, going 3 for his first 7, and that's on the heels of hitting .375 in Spring Training. #dodgers #dodgersprospects

@LakersEmpire LeBron will see if he can earn his current contract.

Guess we will see if Austin Reaves deserves that contract

@RealSkipBayless Actually LeBron will get exposed has a player that is closer to collecting Social Security then when he was actually in his prime.

OH, NO: Without Luka, LeBron will get exposed AGAIN as a clutchless Laker in the playoffs!

@dylanohernandez @khobi_price Still remember when Magic obtain the same injury in game 2 of the 89 NBA finals. He attempted to play through it in game 3 but only lasted 1 quarter.

From @khobi_price:

@JeffSpiegel Is velocity or command more important? Especially for a starting pitcher.

Emmet Sheehan's two fastest pitches of the game came in the 6th inning (95.7, 95.4)

@THEREAL_DV @AM570LASports Dodgers should bat Smith 2nd because with his long ABs it punish pitchers for walking Ohtani.

#Dodgers Lineup vs #Nationals RHP, Miles Mikolas: Ohtani DH Tucker RF Betts SS Freeman 1B Smith C Muncy 3B T. Hernandez LF Pages CF Freeland 2B Emmet Sheehan SP

@AnaKasparian What did Theo say?

Theo is right. He’s not the crazy one.

@TheRealJHair @BrickCenter_ Hamstring injuries is the worst for basketball players ask Magic. 1989 NBA finals. Why the Lakers did not 3Peat.

Luka Doncic hurt his hamstring 😳

@Bnicklaus7 Luke Fox was not to bad.

Top #Dodgers OF prospect Josue De Paula barely kept a ball fair for an RBI single, scoring Kendall George from second Tulsa is going to have a very exciting outfield this year

@DodgersNation @DMAC_LA Dave Roberts is the best manager in the MLB. However, Tucker will improve when you move Smith to 2nd in the batting order. Smith a right handed hitter that has great AB should be protecting Ohtani. Then move Freeman to third & Tucker to 5. That takes the pressure off of him.

@ByJackHarris @dylanohernandez @capostsports The Cleveland Guardians win by making the other team look bad. The Guardians were the worse hitting postseason team. How does A weak hitting team make the playoffs? Dominating pitching! Dodgers will not see that kind of pitching again until October.

“You can talk to every single one of us & say we wish we had a better offensive first week.” The Dodgers superstars aren’t hitting through (the very small sample of) the season’s first week On their struggles & why they aren’t concerned, @capostsports: nypost.com/2026/04/01/spo…

@DodgerBlue1958 It’s time to change the line up to the following: 1) Ohtani 2) Smith 3) Tucker 4) Mookie 5) Freeman 6) Pages 7) Muncy 8) Hernandez 9) Freeland

Shohei Ohtani - .176 Kyle Tucker - .182 Mookie Betts - .143 Freddie Freeman - .174 Will Smith - .211 Teoscar Hernández - .200 Not great! The offense will remain flat until a few of them start hitting.

@esaagar Unless, this ends similar to WW2. Only difference instead of the US making Tehran the new Nagasaki, it maybe Israel making Tehran Nagasaki. Before Israel will allow Trump to cut and run look out, especially if they don’t have any troops on the ground in Iran.

Professor Robert Pape: "Iran is emerging as a new global center of power...this will end up being worse than Vietnam"

@KimIversenShow @aj_inapi @naomirwolf One land is given to a nation in the Bible. Because of that, you’re talking apples and oranges.

America is literally fighting hard to prevent foreigners from flooding in to prevent the same fate as what’s happened to the Palestinians. How would Americans react if a bunch of Mexicans came in through the southern border, said “this is historically Mexico and so we declare it us now once again Mexico”? Do you think Americans would shrug it off or would they fight? If they fought are they terrorists?

There’s a lot of hatred towards Israel right now, and I think a lot of people are looking at this situation with absolutely no historical perspective. No country on Earth would tolerate what Israel has lived with since 1948. We’re talking about a country that was invaded the moment it was created. Multiple wars. Suicide bombings. Bus bombings. Rockets fired into civilian neighborhoods. Children growing up with bomb shelters as a normal part of life. Sirens going off and people having seconds to run for cover. Hostages taken. Civilians massacred. And people expect them to just sit there and do nothing? Americans talk big about freedom and security, but the truth is Americans could not live like that for 70+ years. If rockets were being fired into Texas or California for decades, if terrorists crossed the border and killed 1,000 Americans in one day, the response would be overwhelming and it would not even be debated. It would be finished quickly and decisively. But when Israel responds, suddenly the world holds them to a completely different standard than every other country on Earth. Another thing people don’t want to talk about is history. The Jewish connection to that land is not something that started in 1948. It goes back thousands of years. Archaeology, recorded history, ancient kingdoms, temples, language, culture - all tied to that land long before most modern countries even existed. Meanwhile countries like America, Australia, Canada - we can’t even make that same historical claim to the land in the same way. So if we’re going to be honest and fair, we have to be consistent. Either every country has the right to defend its citizens and exist in security, or they don’t. But singling out one country in the world and expecting them to live under constant attack, constant terrorism, constant threats of destruction, and then condemning them every time they respond is not fairness. That’s politics.
