Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Andy Pages remains sidelined for the playoffs, raising questions about whether manager Dave Roberts may bench him. The Dodgers suffered a loss in Game 2 of the NLDS to the Atlanta Braves, with Pages contributing to the poor performance. He has been struggling at the plate, going 0-for-7 with four strikeouts and one walk so far in the series.
This is not the first time Pages has faced benching, as he was shown the door after going 1-for-13 in the first three games of the World Series. In the 2025 playoffs, he went just 4-for-51, with one RBI and 11 strikeouts. Despite his current slump, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts remains optimistic about Andy Pages' potential. He stated that he is committed to giving Pages a chance to be an active part of the team, hoping to avoid the need for a benching.
If Pages continues to struggle, Roberts might have to consider other options. In the upcoming Game 3 against the Braves, Chris Sale is set to start for the Braves, with Pages going 0-for-5 against him in previous matchups. However, Tyler Mahle could face the Dodgers in Game 4, with Pages 0-for-2 against him. The first pitch between the Dodgers and Braves is scheduled for 6 pm ET on Tuesday night.
