Dodgers’ Dave Roberts Offers Specific Timeline for Mookie Betts’ Return

Finally, Mookie Betts can see the light at the end of a long tunnel.

Manager Dave Roberts told reporters Saturday in Oakland that he’s “hopeful” Betts will rejoin the Dodgers around Aug. 12-13, according to Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times:

That aligns with the Dodgers’ next road trip, which begins in Milwaukee. After playing the Oakland A’s Saturday and Sunday, the Dodgers return home to host the Philadelphia Phillies for three games starting Monday.

The Dodgers are already hoping to welcome back one of their three former MVPs to the lineup during the homestand.
