Dodgers juggle Ohtani’s knee, Glasnow’s shutdown, Ward’s window — June 14, 2026

Dodgers injuries keep driving the roster: Shohei Ohtani sat Friday with knee inflammation, Tyler Glasnow has been moved to the 60-day IL, and Ryan Ward’s brief Freddie Freeman paternity-list window raises real bench-depth questions.
