Mookie Betts regains elite bat speed after recovering from a virus-induced weight loss and swing-speed drop.
Mookie Betts is regaining elite bat speed after a 2025 season hampered by a virus that caused a nearly 20-pound weight loss and a 10-mph drop in swing speed, dropping his average below 70 mph.
Now near 180 pounds, he says his bat speed has returned to prime levels, crediting a training regimen inspired by pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto, including javelin throws and daily stretching under Yamamoto’s trainer.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts notes Betts looks stronger and more confident.
Reliever Tanner Scott shows improved command in spring training, while Shohei Ohtani, Yamamoto, and Edwin Diaz are set to return after the World Baseball Classic.
Roki Sasaki and Blake Snell completed bullpen sessions, with Sasaki scheduled for another start.
