The Los Angeles Dodgers manager, Dave Roberts, gave an update on the Bobby Miller launcher after he was hit by the head by a line traction comebaker during a spring training game.
Miller still had some headache, but he had felt better following the 106 mph lining that hit his head against the Chicago puppies, Roberts said Friday. He added that there was no fracture or significant bruises suffered in the incident.

“It has some headache, but there is no fracture,” Roberts said, through Los Angeles Times. “Today, it will only be low, but you feel very sure that you can soon collect your launch program. But you should only continue to pass through the brain shock protocol just to make sure we stay on the right path.”
Roberts transmitted that Miller told him that he had a “hard head” and that he was in “good humor.”
“He feels very sure that he can soon collect his launch program,” added the manager. “But you just have to continue going through the brain shock protocol just to make sure we stay on the right path.”

Roberts did not give a clear timeline of Miller’s return.
Miller was the first round of the Dodgers in the 2020 MLB draft and made his debut three years later. He had a decent rookie season, launching an effectiveness of 3.76 in 22 openings, but his second campaign was a different story.
The 25 -year -old was up and down between the older and minors, since it accumulated an effectiveness of 8.52 in 13 major league openings, while time was also missing with the inflammation of the shoulder.

Los Angeles comes from their second victory in the World Series since 2020, and only improved by adding Blake Snell, Kirby Yates and Roki Sasaki.
