Tony, when you look at the Dodgers rotation, who do you think is starting tonight? Or do we know for sure yet?
The data doesn't explicitly list the probable starter in a brief, but with a 90 to 59 record, they are likely trying to clinch divisional seeding or secure home field advantage.
They will go with their ace or their most reliable arm.
Right.
Does he have the stuff to hang with Los Angeles?
It is a steep climb.
The Dodgers lineup is deep.
They don't have weak spots.
If Abbott gives them anything over the middle of the plate, they will punish it.
That is terrifying.
So if Abbott can't miss bats early, we are in trouble.
What about the bullpen? Tajay Antone is there but the rest of the group looks thin.
Exactly.
You have to Jay Antone, Tony Santeon, and then guys like Pierce Johnson and Graham Ashcraft.
But if the starter goes down, you're digging deep.
The Dodgers have a lineup that can chew up a tired bullpen in six innings.
So the key here is getting six strong innings from the starter.
No easy outs.
