Show Notes
On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, we take stock of the good, bad, and the ugly of the Dodgers losing three out of four games to the Braves. Bobby Miller impressed on Sunday with seven strong innings, making a strong case to move up in the pecking order in the October postseason rotation.
We recorded this episode on Sunday night, before news of Julio Urías getting arrested in Los Angeles on felony domestic violence charges. Urías will not accompany the team on their road trip to Miami and Washington D.C., and an MLB investigation is pending.
Also in this episode, the Dodgers bullpen needs more right-handers but none of the injured pitchers are particularly close to returning. Starter Walker Buehler did start a rehab assignment though, and his return nearly 13 months after Tommy John surgery suddenly looks more real and possible than before.
Mookie Betts and James Outman won awards for August, the Dodgers optioned Ryan Pepiot for some reason, and we guess if and when Betts might break the record for leadoff home runs in a season.
