Lindor’s path to beating Ohtani for NL MVP honors

It was another incredible week for history-making sluggers Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani

Jack Flaherty

LAD Starting Pitcher #0

Jack Flaherty limited the Guardians to four singles over 7 1/3 innings in the Dodgers’ 4-0 shutout on Sunday.

He also walked none in a start of the first time since June 4. Flaherty moved to 5-1 with a 2.61 ERA in seven starts for the Dodgers. He’s probably going to be matched up against Chris Sale and the Braves on Saturday, which is one to look forward to.
Shohei Ohtani

LAD Designated Hitter #17

Shohei Ohtani went 2-for-4 and hit his 46th homer against the Guardians on Sunday.

Ohtani’s homer off Tanner Bibee was 116.7 mph off the bat, matching his third-highest EV on a homer this year, and was projected at 450 feet. It was his 30th solo shot. That’s easier to understand now that he’s hitting leadoff, but those voting for NL MVP should note that Ohtani is slugging .665 with the bases empty, .544 with men on and .342 with runners in scoring position.
Will Smith

LAD Catcher #16

Will Smith went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI versus the Guardians on Sunday.

It’s been quite a struggle for Smith since the All-Star break, but today was good. He came into this one batting .167/.268/.242 during the second half.
Teoscar Hernandez

LAD Left Fielder #37

Teoscar Hernández is not in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Guardians.

No surprise here, as Hernández is likely a few days away from returning from his ankle injury. Andy Pages again gets the start in the outfield and will hit seventh.
Justin Wrobleski

LAD Starting Pitcher #70

Dodgers optioned LHP Justin Wrobleski to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Wrobleski fired two scoreless innings of relief Saturday against the Guardians, so the Dodgers will go with a fresh arm. In this case it’s left-hander Nick Ramirez, who had his contract selected in the corresponding transaction.
Michael Petersen

LAD Relief Pitcher #90

Dodgers designated RHP Michael Petersen for assignment.

Petersen is now off the 40-man roster to make room for Nick Ramirez. The 30-year-old will hit the waiver wire, and could see interest from teams needing depth for the final few weeks of the year.
Nick Ramirez

LAD Relief Pitcher #64

Dodgers selected the contract of LHP Nick Ramirez from Triple-A Oklahoma City.

The Dodgers removed Ramirez from the 40-man roster after their deadline deals, but they’ll bring the veteran 35-year-old back up to help the bullpen. He will likely be a mid-inning option in this stint with the Dodgers.
Tommy Edman

LAD Second Baseman #25

Tommy Edman finished 2-for-4 with a two-run double and a steal in the Dodgers’ 7-2 defeat of the Guardians.

The Dodgers prevailed in a bullpen game in which seven pitchers worked, with none of them throwing more than two innings. Edman’s double was perfectly placed down the left field line in the first inning, bouncing into the stands on one hop. He’s hitting a modest .266/.284/.328 since coming off the IL, but things are looking up there, and he does have four steals in 17 games.
Brusdar Graterol

LAD Relief Pitcher #48

Brusdar Graterol (hamstring) threw a scoreless inning in a rehab appearance Friday for Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Graterol is ready to role, and the question now is when the 26-year-old comes back. The answer to that question was provided — sort of — by Dave Roberts, as the Dodgers manager told reporters that he could be back Sunday or Monday; depending on the bullpen usage in the games before. Graterol will be a mid-to-late innings option for the Los Angeles bullpen whenever he is back on the bump.
Tyler Glasnow

LAD Starting Pitcher #31

Tyler Glasnow (elbow) threw a 25-pitch bullpen session before Saturday’s game against the Guardians.

Glasnow threw off a mound for the first time since being diagnosed with elbow tendinitis. The right-hander will likely need to make a few more bullpen sessions before he can return to the mound, and likely will need a simulated game — possibly a rehab assignment — before potentially returning before the end of the regular season.
