Dodgers News: Why Did Dave Roberts Choose Ryan Pepiot As the Fifth Starter? Very high praise for the 25-year-old.

Claims final rotation spot Pepiot has won the final spot in the Dodgers' starting rotation, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact The 25-year-old right-hander might only hold that spot for a couple of turns as Tony Gonsolin works back from a left ankle sprain, but Pepiot should carry considerable fantasy streaming appeal for however long he's in the Dodgers' rotation. He posted a cool 3.47 ERA with 42 strikeouts over his first 36.1 major-league innings in 2022.

Set to start Wednesday Pepiot (side) is listed as the Dodgers' probable starter for Wednesday's spring game against the Mariners.

Impact The right-hander exited his previous Cactus League start Friday due to side discomfort but will make his next turn through the rotation Wednesday. Pepiot made his big-league debut last season and had a 3.47 ERA across 36.1 frames in nine outings (seven starts), and he's making a strong push for a rotation spot to open 2023 with just two runs allowed and a 13:3 K:BB over nine innings during spring training.

Leaves start with side discomfort Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that Pepiot was dealing with side discomfort during his Cactus League start Friday against the Cubs, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.

Impact "Kind of something in the midsection of his body," Roberts told Dodgers reporter Kirsten Watson. "We just felt after that long third inning, we felt it was smart to put on that next inning and get him ready for his next start." The right-hander went three innings while allowing just one run, walking two and striking out four. The long inning Roberts referred to is an eight-run burst for the Dodgers before Pepiot exited. The 25-year-old has a good chance to open the season in the rotation, and Roberts mentioned that he believes Pepiot will make his next start, but fantasy managers will want to pay close attention to this situation.

MLB 26-and-under power rankings: No. 7 Los Angeles Dodgers

Could open year in rotation Pepiot is an option to open the season in the Dodgers' rotation in Tony Gonsolin (ankle) isn't ready, manager Dave Roberts told Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times on Friday.

Impact Roberts listed Michael Grove as the other option to fill a potential Gonsolin vacancy. Pepiot held a 3.47 ERA with 42 strikeouts over 36.1 innings for the Dodgers last season. He also walked 27, though, and control has been an ongoing issue for the righty. Still, Pepiot boasts real upside and is worth a look as a late-round target in fantasy if he is added to the Dodgers' rotation.

Dodgers News: Ryan Pepiot Talks First Start of Spring, What Felt Good The prospect is making significant progress and is focused on refining his pitches.

MARCH 1, 2023 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Strong impression in spring debut Pepiot tossed one scoreless inning in a Cactus League contest against San Diego on Monday, allowing one hit and striking out one batter.

Impact While the Dodgers' five-man rotation appears set, the team doesn't yet have a clear option for its long-reliever/sixth-starter role. Pepiot is among the candidates to fill that slot, and he no doubt helped his case with a strong spring debut during which he threw 16 of 21 pitches for strikes and touched 94 mph with his fastball, per Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times. The right-hander did fine over 36.1 innings in his first taste of the majors last season, posting a 3.47 ERA and 26.3 percent strikeout rate, but his 1.46 WHIP and 16.9 percent walk rate were less encouraging. He'll need to improve his command to be a successful big-league starter, so Monday's outing was a step in the right direction, though a one-inning appearance at the start of spring shouldn't be overhyped.

Will Dodgers lean more on farm or free agency to address their many needs?

Back in minors Pepiot, who was returned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sept. 21, struck out two over a one-inning start for the affiliate Sunday.

Impact Between the majors and Triple-A, Pepiot is up to 127.2 innings in 2022, so the Dodgers could choose to be conservative with the 25-year-old's usage over the final days of the regular season. Pepiot most recently made a spot start for the Dodgers on Sept. 20, but with Tony Gonsolin (forearm) trending toward a return from the 15-day injured list as soon as Sunday, the rookie may not make his way back to the big club this season.

Takes win in Game 1 of twin bill Pepiot (3-0) earned the win over the Diamondbacks in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out four batters over three innings.

Impact Michael Grove got the start for Los Angeles and gave the team five innings before Pepiot took over in the sixth. The latter was very effective in his three frames, allowing two of the first three batters he faced to reach base before retiring the next eight. Pepiot served as the 29th man for the doubleheader, so he could return to the minors soon despite the strong outing.

SEPTEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Added as 29th man Pepiot will serve as the Dodgers' 29th man in Tuesday's doubleheader against the Diamondbacks.

Impact It was reported Monday night that Pepiot would be called up Tuesday, and the Dodgers ultimately made the move official. He will not start the first game of the twin bill, but according to Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com, manager Dave Roberts is hoping Pepiot and starter Michael Grove "will be able to cover the first game." As such, expect Pepiot to follow Grove into the game and work several innings.

Will be used as 29th man Pepiot will serve as the 29th man for Tuesday's doubleheader against the Diamondbacks, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact Pepiot is in line for a brief promotion to the big leagues and will head right back down to Triple-A Oklahoma City following the nightcap. Michael Grove is scheduled to start Game 1 of the twin bill, but Pepiot is expected to serve as the primary pitcher, per J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News. He surrendered one unearned run on three hits and four walks while fanning two over two innings in his last major-league action.
