Gonsolin is recovering from a forearm injury, and Dodgers manager Dave Roberts says he is “hopeful” Gonsolin will be ready to pitch in the postseason “in some capacity.”
PHOENIX — Tony Gonsolin was a revelation in the Dodgers’ starting rotation this season.Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Gonsolin’s bullpen session Wednesday was “encouraging” and he was “hopeful” Gonsolin will recover from his forearm injury in time to be a part of the Dodgers’ postseason pitching plans “in some capacity.”
“Kind of the theme of our pitching staff as we look out is having the sum be better than the individual parts in the sense of getting 27 outs in games in a postseason,” Roberts said. “I don’t know how it will look like for Tony as far as potential buildup or workload. It would be premature at this point to say Gonsolin will pitch out of the bullpen in October, Roberts said – while pointing out that Gonsolin does have some experience in that role. Gonsolin made seven postseason appearances in 2020 and 2021, four of them in relief.
