Matt Sauer News: Set to pitch for big club Tuesday
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said after Monday's win over the Padres that Sauer will be recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City and will pitch in Tuesday's contest, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Although Roberts didn't confirm as much, Sauer is expected to start or serve as a bulk reliever for Tuesday's game in San Diego. The 26-year-old right-hander has made one start and six relief appearances with the Dodgers this season, posting a 3.05 ERA and 13:3 K:BB over 20.2 frames. Sauer went 4.2 innings and threw 82 pitches in his last start with Oklahoma City, so he should be prepared for a full workload Tuesday.
