The Los Angeles Dodgers conclude their weekend series with the Atlanta Braves and six-game road trip with Jedd Gyorko making his team debut and Tony Gonsolin on the mound for a third career start.
Gonsolin takes the hill in place of Dustin May, who instead will pitch out of the bullpen in the finale at SunTrust Park. In actuality, it was Clayton Kershaw who was scheduled to start Sunday against the Braves.
However, that changed when he and May were swapped in the rotation during the series with the Miami Marlins. As the Dodgers continue to evaluate their pitching prospects, May’s relief appearance will be the first of his young career.
