Knack, 27, is set to make his first start of the season today against the Washington Nationals. The Tennessee native featured on the Tokyo Series roster earlier this year, pitching one game and striking out three in 2.0 innings. Knack made his Major League debut in 2024, delivering a solid performance over 69 innings, where he allowed 28 runs on 58 hits and recorded a 3-5 record with a 3.65 ERA and 69 strikeouts. This season, he has pitched one game for Triple-A Oklahoma City, striking out five over 4.2 innings. Drafted in 2020 from East Tennessee State University, Knack is aiming to contribute significantly to the Dodgers’ rotation.

Wrobleski, 24, started last night’s game but struggled, surrendering eight runs over 5.0 innings. The southpaw debuted in the Major Leagues in 2024 and has since appeared in nine games, posting a 1-3 record with a 6.75 ERA and 30 strikeouts. Across 59 minor league appearances, Wrobleski holds an 11-11 record with an impressive 3.20 ERA. Drafted in the 11th round of the 2021 MLB Draft from Oklahoma State University, Wrobleski will aim to refine his skills and rebound while in Triple-A.
