Dodgers: Dave Roberts Plans for Julio Urias in the Starting Rotation

2020 might finally be the year of Julio. The 23-year-old Urias came into Dodgers camp looking slimmer and eager to earn a role among the starting 5 in the LA rotation. On Saturday, manager Dave Roberts said that is very likely.

For the short version, Doc said “right now that’s where we see him” as far as the rotation is concerned. The longer version has Roberts acknowledging a healthier looking Urias in 2020.

The conversations that we’ve had with Julio is more that he understands what’s in front of him.
