Edwin Díaz struggles with mechanics amid busy Dodgers bullpen schedule

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Edwin Díaz is unlikely to pitch over the weekend against the Milwaukee Brewers after extended outings in the previous two games. Díaz, who has struggled since returning from the injured list, loaded the bases but secured a save on Friday night. He expressed concerns about his mechanics, specifically his posture on the mound and the accuracy of his pitches. Manager Dave Roberts noted the bullpen has been heavily utilized, with relief pitchers facing increased workloads, complicating availability for upcoming games. Díaz is set to work on his pitching issues during the downtime, aiming for improvement in future outings.
