Ian Thomas gets the call for Dodgers vs. Mets

The Dodgers will continue to tap into their pitching depth for this weekend against the Mets at Citi Field. On Friday, Ian Thomas makes his first major league start, and will be the 13th different starting pitcher used by the Dodgers this season.

That's one more than last season, and the most by a Dodgers team since 1964.

If Zach Lee gets the call on Saturday, the Dodgers will reach 14 different starters for the first time since 1952. The only Dodgers team to use more starting pitchers was in 1944, with 19 starting pitchers used in the middle of World War II.
