Emmet Sheehan Starting on Saturday Against Brewers
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.
