Emmet Sheehan Starting on Saturday Against Brewers
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Emmet Sheehan is scheduled to make his first start of the second half of the season on Saturday against the visiting Milwaukee Brewers. In Sheehan's last appearance, he went 4 1/3 innings as the bulk reliever behind "opener" Shohei Ohtani on July 12. Saturday will be the 25-year-old's third start of the season and only his fourth big-league appearance. He's been strong so far in just 13 1/3 innings for the Blue, allowing three earned runs on 10 hits while walking four and striking out 13 batters. Once the Dodgers' starting rotation is back to full health -- mainly whenever lefty Blake Snell (shoulder) is ready to return -- Sheehan will move to a long-relief role or back to the minors. While Sheehan has looked good in a small sample size this year, he'll be a shaky streamer this weekend against the red-hot Brewers.
