Mookie Betts Set to Return From Strained Oblique when Dodgers Open Series Against Giants on Monday
- Mookie Betts will return from the injured list on Monday and is expected to start at shortstop against the San Francisco Giants.

- Manager Dave Roberts noted that the roster decision is complex due to contributions from all three infielders and the need to balance playing time and roster depth as Betts shares time at shortstop initially.
