The Dodgers have announced that Zach Lee has been promoted and will start for them tonight. They will announce a corresponding move later today. The 23-year-old Lee, a first-round pick in 2010, was a staple of top 100 prospects lists before a rough season with Triple-A Albuquerque in 2014. He’s bounced back nicely with the Dodgers’ new Triple-A affiliate in Oklahoma City this season, though, posting a 2.36 ERA, 6.6 K/9 and 1.8 BB/9 in 68 2/3 innings. He’ll become the 14th pitcher to start for the Dodgers in a season that’s featured tons of rotation injuries.
Prospect Notes: Lee, Hultzen, Giolito
