Ross Stripling Set For Sunday Activation

By Connor Byrne | August 29, 2019 at 8:11pm CDT

Right-hander Ross Stripling is set for activation from the injured list when rosters expand Sunday, Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register tweets. Stripling hasn’t pitched since July 24 because of neck and biceps issues.

The 24-year-old Stripling’s a swingman, but he had been something of a regular in the Dodgers’ rotation before landing on the IL. With 12 starts this year, Stripling ranks fifth among Dodgers hurlers in that category. And Stripling has been quite effective in that role, evidenced by his 3.54 ERA/4.06 FIP with 8.85 K/9 and 1.92 BB/9 in 61 innings as a starter in 2019.

To his credit, Stripling is also a viable reliever, making him one of seemingly umpteen Dodgers who’s capable of faring well in multiple positions He holds a lifetime 3.24 ERA/3.47 FIP and has posted 8.71 K/9 against 2.59 BB/9 over 125 frames from the Los Angeles bullpen.

With the playoffs approaching and the Dodgers well on their way to a first-place finish in the National League, Stripling’s likely to factor into their relief corps down the stretch. It’s a group that has come under fire on plenty of occasions this season – including when Pedro Baez and once-automatic closer Kenley Jansen each yielded an earned run in a win over the Padres on Wednesday – so Stripling could serve as an important reinforcement in the coming weeks.

      He used an aggressive Oil of Olay treatment while on the IL. He’s 24 now.

    The loss of Stripling wasn’t crippling.

    Players missing from the Roster the Dodgers need:

    Alex Verdugo – hes probably thebest defensive outfielder the Dodgers have aside from Bellinger. He hits lefties better than Seager, Muncy and Beaty.

    David Freese – clutch, probably the best October player on the team. Excellent hitter, easily top 5 on the team in terms of batting.
    Max Muncy – duh
    Rich Hill – solid, didnt choke in last 2 post seasons

    Players that can stay out….
    Tyler White
    Scott Alexander
    Ross Stripling
