The Dodgers will be promoting one of the top prospects on Wednesday afternoon. In the final game of the series against the Pirates, Ryan Pepiot will be making his big league debut. Dave Roberts said before the game on Tuesday that Pepiot would be out there to debut.
The 24-year-old righty will take the mound just a 6-hour drive from his hometown of Indianapolis. The Dodgers’ second-best pitching prospect has had a heck of a start to the 2022 season, appearing in 6 games and dominating along the way.
Pepiot has been traveling with the team on their taxi squad since they got into Pittsburgh.
