Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Justin Wrobleski came in as the bulk reliever during Sunday's game against the Kansas City Royals. This strategy has been working for the Dodgers, so they will continue using it. Wrobleski followed opener Lou Trivino and was nearly untouchable on the mound. He tossed six scoreless innings, allowing three hits, and striking out six batters in the win. Wrobleski has tossed four straight outings with two earned runs or less. The 24-year-old could start picking up steam here soon in fantasy leagues with the way he's throwing the ball.

Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Justin Wrobleski is expected to pitch in Sunday's series finale against the Kansas City Royals, but it's unclear if he'll be given the starting nod or if he'll serve in a bulk-relief role. The most likely outcome is that Wrobleski will pitch in bulk relief, as he's been more successful in that role with a 1.96 ERA and 0.87 WHIP with 19 strikeouts and only two walks in 18 1/3 innings. The 24-year-old southpaw is 3-2 in total in 29 1/3 innings pitched with a 4.91 ERA (3.76 FIP), 1.23 WHIP and 28:8 K:BB in his second year in the big leagues. Although Wrobleski does have higher-end velocity for a left-handed pitcher, fantasy managers should be able to find better deep-league streamers for Sunday's slate of action. He's gone at least 4 1/3 innings in each of his six big-league outings for L.A. this year. The Royals offense has the fourth-lowest OPS (.664) in baseball.

The Los Angeles Dodgers announced on Friday that they recalled left-hander Justin Wrobleski from Triple-A Oklahoma City and optioned right-hander Landon Knack to Oklahoma City in a corresponding move. Wrobleski will make the start in Friday's series opener at Busch Stadium against the St. Louis Cardinals in what will be just his eighth start in the big leagues since debuting in 2024. Fantasy managers should be looking to stay away from the 24-year-old southpaw as a streamer in St. Louis. He had a 5.09 ERA in 40 2/3 innings at OKC in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League and allowed eight earned runs on nine hits (two homers) while walking three and striking out eight in nine innings over his two outings (one starts) for L.A. earlier this year. Wrobleski's strikeout rate leaves plenty to be desired, and he could head right back to the minors after this spot start.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have optioned left-handed pitching prospect Justin Wrobleski to Triple-A Oklahoma City. Wrobleski was tasked to pitch four innings of relief on Thursday but will now return to Triple-A. In this contest against the Athletics, the left-hander performed quite well, logging four one-hit innings. He did not allow a walk and struck out four batters. During his first outing of the season, Wrobleski allowed eight runs and eight hits across five innings against the Nationals. Last season, the No. 10-ranked prospect in the system held a 5.70 ERA with a 1.38 WHIP across 36 1/3 innings of work. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his production at Triple-A, as he should be in the mix to return to Los Angeles later in the summer.

Los Angeles Dodgers pitching prospect Justin Wrobleski was optioned to Triple-A on Wednesday. Wrobleski was given the starting nod on Tuesday evening against the Washington Nationals but struggled in this outing as he allowed eight hits and eight earned runs in just five innings of work. He struck out four batters and served up three free passes. Even with Blake Snell (shoulder) on the injured list, the Dodgers will opt for Wrobleski to continue his development with Triple-A Oklahoma City. Last summer, Wroblesk logged 36 1/3 innings in the major leagues and held a 5.70 ERA with a 1.38 WHIP. Through his first five 2/3 innings with Oklahoma City this season, Wrobleski did not allow a run and struck out three. As a result, Landon Knack should continue to see opportunities in the rotation.

The Los Angeles Dodgers recalled left-hander Justin Wrobleski from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, and he will make the start against the hosting Washington Nationals at Nationals Park. Right-hander Matt Sauer was optioned to Oklahoma City in a corresponding move. The 24-year-old southpaw will be making his first start of the 2025 season and just the seventh of his career after he debuted in the big leagues with the Dodgers in 2024. With lefty Blake Snell (shoulder) on the injured list, it's possible that Wrobleski will make more starts beyond Tuesday's outing. He was inconsistent last year with a 5.70 ERA (6.36 FIP) and 1.38 WHIP with 26 strikeouts and 16 walks in 36 1/3 innings over eight total appearances. Wrobleski looked good in his first start at Oklahoma City this year, tossing 5 2/3 scoreless innings. He could end up being a nice streaming sleeper.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have optioned left-handed pitcher Justin Wrobleski to Triple-A. In a corresponding move, the Dodgers selected Matt Sauer's contract. Wrobleski enjoyed an impressive spring training as he posted a 1.93 ERA with a stellar 0.75 WHIP across nine 1/3 innings of work. He tallied nine punchouts while serving up just one free pass. The Oklahoma State product made his MLB debut last season and held a 5.70 ERA with a 1.38 WHIP across his first 36 1/3 MLB frames. Fantasy managers should expect Wrobleski to be in the mix to return to the major leagues later in the summer. At Triple-A, the southpaw has held a 5.46 ERA with a 1.86 WHIP across 28 innings. At Double-A, he held a solid 3.06 ERA with a 1.03 WHIP. Fantasy managers in deeper formats should monitor his development, as he will likely be promoted as a starting pitcher when he returns to Los Angeles.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitching prospect Justin Wrobleski tossed three shutout frames on Sunday afternoon against the Athletics. Wrobleski tallied three punchouts and did not allow a baserunner. This was a strong outing for Wrobleski as he is competing for a role on the major league roster. Last season, the 24-year-old made his MLB debut and posted a 5.70 ERA with a 1.38 WHIP across 36 1/3 innings of work. He appeared in eight games and started six of them. In the minor leagues, he spent time at both Double and Triple-A last summer. Across 67 2/3 innings at Double-A, Wrobleski held a strong 3.06 ERA with a 1.03 WHIP. However, when he moved up to Triple-A, he struggled as he posted a higher 5.46 ERA with a 1.86 WHIP. If he continues this strong performance in spring, he could earn a long relief role in the majors.
