While the Dodgers roster is largely in good shape, they do have one fatal flaw they must address before the MLB trade deadline.

As the Los Angeles Dodgers weigh potential deadline deals to improve their roster, they don't want to subtract from the MLB club to do so if they can avoid it.

Mookie Betts has a storied history at Fenway Park, but the Red Sox didn't see him for the opener of a three-game set with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Betts was not present for Friday's matchup and Dodgers manager Dave Roberts provided clarity to his update from earlier this week that the All-Star would miss the opener with a personal matter.

Four hundred feet from home plate, deep inside Fenway Park’s triangular center field, with a ball in the air and the game maybe on the line, Jarren Duran raced back, back, back, tracking it the whole way.

Mookie Betts did not travel with the Dodgers and will not play Friday night when Los Angeles faces the host Boston Red Sox as he deals with a personal matter, manager Dave Roberts told reporters Friday.
