Flaherty will start in Game 5 of the NLCS against the Mets on Friday, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

Flaherty was dominant in Game 1 of the series, striking out six batters over seven shutout innings en route to a 9-0 victory. He'll look to put on a similar performance Friday against a Mets offense that owns a .698 OPS across nine postseason contests.

Flaherty will start Sunday in Game 1 of the NLCS against the Mets, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Flaherty was roughed up during his first outing of the postseason, surrendering four earned runs over 5.1 innings in a loss to San Diego, but he figures to have a good chance to bounce back Sunday after turning in a 3.17 ERA during the regular season.

Flaherty will start in Game 2 of the NLDS against the Padres on Sunday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Dodgers originally planned to start Flaherty in Game 1, but they are instead opting to start Yoshinobu Yamamoto to allow Yamamoto five days rest before potentially pitching in a decisive Game 5. Flaherty had a solid regular season, but he did struggle a bit down the stretch by allowing nine earned runs across his final 14 frames with a 14:9 K:BB.

Dodgers general manager Brandon Gomes said Wednesday that the club plans to start Flaherty on Saturday in Game 1 of the NLDS, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Flaherty will be tasked with Game 1 before the Dodgers turn to Yoshinobu Yamamoto in Game 2. The 28-year-old posted a 3.58 ERA and 61:19 K:BB across 55.1 innings covering 10 starts for the Dodgers after being acquired from the Tigers at the trade deadline.

Flaherty did not factor into the decision in a win over the Padres on Wednesday, allowing three runs on four hits and three walks over five innings while striking out five.

EDGE Analysis

Flaherty allowed four of the first six batters to reach between the first and second inning, leading to two runs coming home for San Diego over that stretch. He then went on to retire 10 of the next 12 batters he faced before coughing up a solo homer to Fernando Tatis in the fifth. It marked the third-consecutive start in which the right-hander has given up at least three runs and multiple free passes. However, he's also managed to get through at least five innings in nine of 10 outings since joining the Dodgers.

Flaherty (13-7) earned the win Thursday, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks over six innings against the Marlins. He struck out five.

EDGE Analysis

Flaherty cruised to the victory Thursday, posting a quality start of three runs over six innings as he was provided 14 runs of support prior to his removal from the game. It was a nice rebound for Flaherty, who was pulled following completing a season-low three innings in his last start, the only time he's failed to reach five innings across 27 outings this season. Flaherty looks to be in line to make one more start this season, tentatively scheduled to take place against the Padres.

Flaherty (12-7) allowed four runs on five hits and four walks while striking out four over three innings to take the loss versus Atlanta on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The four walks were a season high for Flaherty, who fell short of the five-inning mark for the first time all year. Just 45 of his 83 pitches went for strikes in this poor performance, which came one start after his longest outing of the year, a 7.1-inning scoreless spectacle versus the Guardians last Sunday. Flaherty is now at a 3.04 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 184:33 K:BB through 151 innings between the Dodgers and the Tigers this year. He's got a soft landing spot for a bounce-back effort, as he's projected to make his next start in Miami.

Flaherty (12-6) got the win Sunday over the Guardians, throwing 7.1 scoreless innings while allowing four hits and striking out six.

EDGE Analysis

It was Flaherty's first time this year reaching seven innings and also his first time not walking a batter since June 4. He's now 5-1 with a 2.61 ERA in seven starts with the Dodgers and has given up one run or less in three of his last four starts. For the year, Flaherty owns a 2.86 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 180:29 K:BB in 148 innings. He lines up for a road start against Atlanta over the weekend his next time out.

Flaherty (11-6) picked up the win Monday against Arizona, allowing one run on five hits and three walks across 5.2 innings. He struck out seven.

EDGE Analysis

Flaherty walked more than two batters for the first time this season, but he only allowed one of eight baserunners to score. The 28-year-old has struck out seven or more batters in four of six starts with LA, tallying a 3.18 ERA and a 1.29 ERA across 34 innings. Flaherty is tentatively scheduled to close out a two-start week against the Guardians this weekend.

Flaherty (10-6) took the loss Tuesday against the Orioles, allowing three runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five over six innings.

EDGE Analysis

Flaherty was punished by the long ball Tuesday, as he allowed a solo home run to Ryan O'Hearn in the second and a two-run blast to Ramos Urias in the fifth, which proved to be the difference in the game. The loss was Flaherty's first since June 27 and he's now pitched to a 3.49 ERA over five starts with the Dodgers. For the year, the 28-year-old owns a 3.07 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 167:26 K:BB in 135 innings. He lines up for a road start against the Diamondbacks this weekend.
