The Dodgers' bullpen had completed yet another implosion, allowing six runs over the course of two innings to hand the team a 10-7 loss, its 11th in 14 games. "It better be rock bottom," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said, "as far as how we've been pitching, how we've been playing defense." His timeline is uncertain, but Scott expressed confidence he will return to the bullpen at some point this season. Eric Thayer/Associated PressThe Dodgers' bullpen has taken on the largest workload in the majors by a wide margin, a function of the injuries that had been absorbed throughout the starting rotation. Dodgers relievers rank 24th in the majors in ERA (4.41), WHIP (1.35) and opponents' OPS (.748).
