Dodgers News: Emmet Sheehan ‘In the Conversation’ for Postseason Spot, Says Dave Roberts

The Dodgers may have found the answer to its pitching depth problem with an unexpected rookie.

Emmett Sheehan has only started 10 games in his Major League Baseball career, but he could be playing his way into a spot on the Dodgers postseason roster.

Over the past month, Sheehan has proven that he can compete in the big leagues.

In four starts in September, he has a 3.94 ERA and has struck out 24 batters. Sheehan kept his strong month up by allowing no hits to the Giants Thursday night.

He made history as he became the first pitcher ever to no-hit an opponent through four innings in back-to-back starts.
