Dodgers Set to Receive Major Rotation Boost After Injury News originally appeared on Athlon Sports. A day after All-Star Tyler Glasnow pitched a “very promising” simulated game, the Los Angeles Dodgers are anticipating the return of another top arm to their starting rotation.

After suffering a quad injury earlier in the month, Freddie Freeman broke down his recovery while remaining active for the Dodgers.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto revealed his thoughts on his performance against the San Francisco Giants on Friday.

Yamamoto tossed Schmitt a 1-1 splitter; Schmitt sent the offering towards Glendale. Schmitt’s grand slam wasn’t just his second home run of the season, but his second home run since stepping in for Chapman. In four games as San Francisco’s temporary start, Schmitt is 6-for-15 (.400) with the aforementioned two homers and seven RBIs.

The first Dodgers-Giants series of the season ends with an evening game on Sunday night at Dodger Stadium. Dustin May makes his second start of the week for the home team, with left-hander Kyle Harrison on the mound for San Francisco.

The Washington Nationals should approach the Los Angeles Dodgers with this trade idea surrounding an All-Star closer.
