Dodgers bullpen usage limits Vesia and Scott late in game
Beat reporter notes LA will likely bypass two key relievers due to workload, with Kyle Hurt handling the eighth inning.
Dodgers beat reporter Fabian Ardaya flagged that Alex Vesia and Tanner Scott are both likely unavailable due to recent heavy usage — Vesia appeared in 3 of the last 4 games, and Scott also logged 3 of 4 including an up-down. Kyle Hurt was assigned the eighth inning. The signal suggests the Dodgers' late-game bullpen options are constrained for this contest.
