Throughout the 2018 season, the Dodgers eventually settled in on having two platoon lineups. One lineup against lefties and one lineup against righties. In the first two games of the NLDS the Dodgers have stuck with their right-handed platoon lineup. With the Braves sending southpaw Sean Newcomb to the mound in game three tonight, will the Dodgers stick with their usual platoon lineup?
Dave Roberts mentioned yesterday that he might not use his regular platoon lineup that is used against left-handed pitchers due to the fact that the Braves could pull Newcomb early in the game.
