LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers’ playoff rotation is a riddle to be solved over the next two months. Walker Buehler and Yoshinobu Yamamoto spent Tuesday afternoon at Dodger Stadium trying to show their viability as options.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts watched Buehler’s bullpen session and called it “a good day” for Buehler. Yamamoto has not thrown off a mound since his injury in mid-June but he said it is his “goal” to return and pitch again this season. General Manager Brandon Gomes expressed confidence, based on what he’s seen, that it’s an attainable goal.
The Dodgers have also reportedly signed their ninth- and 10th-round picks . Both were college seniors and received very small bonuses, leaving the Dodgers more to work with from their bonus pool of $6.1 million.When the Dodgers traveled to Seoul to start this season, they spent a week in South Korea, playing two exhibition games before playing two regular-season games against the San Diego Padres.
