The Dodgers conducted a simulated game on Sunday afternoon for three pitchers who did not appear on the roster for this series against the Braves. Ross Stripling, Julio Urias and Josh Fields competed against Chase Utley, Austin Barnes and Kyle Farmer.
Stripling made the All-Star team as a starting pitcher, but struggled in the second half. Opposing hitters posted a .966 on-base plus slugging percentage against him after the break. He was left off the NLDS roster in favor of Ryan Madson and Dylan Floro.
