The Dodgers are in a very interesting position with David Price. Not only did he get a year of rest, but DP was able to build up much sooner than in years past. The veteran southpaw got on his throwing program early and was one of the first pitchers we saw throwing in preparation for Spring Training.
But the Dodgers also have a few different options with how they utilize Price’s talents. They could slot him into the middle of the rotation like everyone expected at the start of camp. Alternatively, they could take advantage of the position they are in and use him in the bullpen early on.
