Thesportstak on MSN'He just doesn't have...': Los Angeles Dodgers manager voices concern over Roki Sasaki's early strugglesLos Angeles Dodgers' manager Dave Roberts is in a spot of bother as Roki Sasaki has not had the start to his MLB career that he would have wished for.
At 40-27, the Dodgers lead the NL West, but by only 1 ½ games over the San Francisco Giants. It's a one-game lead in the loss column. The Dodgers started the season 8-0, their best start since moving to Los Angeles in 1958, but are 32-27 since. They're 16-16 in their last 32 games. That's not bad, but it is a month-long stretch of mediocre ball.
