After placing Hyun-Jin Ryu on the injured list, the Dodgers now need a starter for Saturday’s game against Yasmani Grandal and the Milwaukee Brewers. Clayton Kershaw will take Ryu’s place in the starting rotation but since he started on Tuesday, the earliest he can start for the Dodgers is on Sunday.
The Dodgers do have some wiggle room in who they can bring up to start since the club only has 38 players on their forty man roster. While Dustin May is a popular name most fans would like to see, he started yesterday’s game for the Tulsa Drillers which rules him out for Saturday.
