<\/p>\nLos Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts revealed left-hander Justin Wrobleski will start on Tuesday in place of two-time Cy Young winner Blake Snell.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Snell was placed on the 15-day injured list with shoulder inflammation. There was previous speculation that the Dodgers would use right-hander Landon Knack as Tuesday\u2019s starter since he was at the White House visit with the team.<\/p>\n
However, the defending champions will give Wrobleski the nod. Roberts said the Dodgers chose to start the left-hander Tuesday because that\u2019s when he was schedule to do so at Triple-A Oklahoma City.<\/p>\n
The Dodgers skipper did add that Knack is not in town for no reason, hinting toward the right-hander making a possible start on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
It was previously speculated that the Dodgers would have a bullpen game Wednesday, but it appears Knack is also an option to start.<\/p>\n
Wrobleski last pitched for Oklahoma City on April 1. The left-hander allowed just three hits and no runs across 5.2 innings.<\/p>\n
The 24-year-old logged a 3.76 ERA last season between Double-A and Triple-A. Wrobleski threw 104 strikeouts in 20 appearances (18 starts).<\/p>\n
The southpaw joined the Dodgers on their trip to Japan, and was optioned to Triple-A soon after. Less than a month later, Wrobleski will get to make a big league start against the Washington Nationals.<\/p>\n
