Gonsolin allowed one earned run on three hits and three walks while striking out five across three innings Sunday against the Rangers. He did not factor into the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Gonsolin needed only 23 pitches to get through two innings, but struggled mightily in the third frame. He allowed the first four batters he faced to reach base and surrendered a run on a wild pitch. While he limited the damage, the inefficiency cost him the chance to qualify for a win. Assuming Walker Buehler (hand) is able to make his next start, Gonsolin is a likely candidate to be bumped from the rotation once again.

Gonsolin was recalled from the Dodgers' alternate training site to start Sunday against the Rangers, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old will rejoin the starting rotation for Sunday's series finale after being sent down Aug. 19. Gonsolin was dominant in his first three starts, allowing only six hits with a 12:2 K:BB over 14.2 scoreless innings.

Gonsolin will start Sunday's game against the Rangers, Alanna Rizzo of Spectrum SportsNet LA reports.

EDGE Analysis

Julio Urias was scheduled to take the hill for Sunday's series finale, but now the nod is going to the right-hander. Gonsolin has yet to allow a run in 14.2 innings this season. Urias will start Tuesday against Arizona.

Gonsolin is in San Francisco with the Dodgers as part of the team's taxi squad, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gonsolin's inclusion on the five-man squad is a no-brainer considering his contributions to the big-league team this year. The right-hander has started three games, hurling 14.2 scoreless inning while compiling a 12:2 K:BB. He figures to travel with the team on its upcoming trip to Texas following the series in San Francisco and would be first in line for a spot start if the need arises. Gonsolin last pitched in an intrasquad game at the team's alternate training site Monday, so he should be stretched out. It remains to be seen, however, when the Dodgers will give him his next start. Although they have used a six-man rotation at times this season, their upcoming schedule includes two consecutive Mondays off, potentially providing starters with an extra day of rest.

Gonsolin was optioned to the alternate training site Wednesday, Eric Stephen of True Blue LA reports.

EDGE Analysis

He has not allowed a run across three outings (14.2 innings) this season, but baseball can be an unfair game, especially for talented young players on the Dodgers. The Dodgers are off Monday and can continue with their five-man rotation (Gonsolin was occupying a sixth starter spot) until at least Aug. 30, which is after Gonsolin's option period would end. Ross Stripling has scuffled of late, so it would seem that Gonsolin could replace Stripling in the rotation if that trend continues. Otherwise he will have to bide his time until the Dodgers need a sixth starter or some length out of the bullpen.

Gonsolin didn't factor into the decision in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Mariners, scattering two hits over six scoreless innings while striking out three.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander didn't walk a batter, but he did plunk Dee Gordon with a pitch, and Gonsolin left the game in line for his first win until Jake McGee and Scott Alexander combined to give up Seattle's lone run in the seventh. Gonsolin has yet to allow a run in 14.2 innings over three starts this season, posting a 0.55 WHIP and 12:2 K:BB. However, if the Dodgers return to a five-man rotation, he could be the odd man out despite his success so far.

Gonsolin is listed as the starter for Tuesday's game against the Mariners, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Dodgers don't need to go with a six-man rotation, but that seems to be the plan for now. This report comes from Gurnick, as MLB.com still lists the Dodgers' Monday and Tuesday starters as TBD. Gonsolin doesn't have the same type of ceiling that Julio Urias and Dustin May have put on display this season, but he has not allowed a run while striking out nine and walking two in 8.2 innings across two appearances this season. If he can go five-plus innings for the first time this year, he would have a decent chance of getting the win against Seattle.

Manager Dave Roberts said Gonsolin will likely make another start for the Dodgers, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

It sounds like Gonsolin's strong showing against the Padres on Wednesday -- he struck out eight across 4.2 scoreless innings -- earned him at least one more turn through the rotation, though the Dodgers have yet to confirm when his next outing will come.

Gonsolin didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's contest between the Dodgers and the Padres. He tossed 4.2 scoreless innings, giving up three hits and one walk while fanning eight.

EDGE Analysis

All signs point towards Wednesday's start being a spot start for Gonsolin, but the 26-year-old made the most of the opportunity and held the red-hot Padres scoreless while also retiring 11 consecutive batters at one point. Gonsolin is yet to allow a run in two starts this season, posting a 9:2 K:BB in 8.2 innings.

Gonsolin was recalled as expected Wednesday ahead of his scheduled start against the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

Gonsolin made one start for the Dodgers back in late July, holding the Diamondbacks scoreless while allowing just one hit over four innings. He now owns an excellent 2.66 ERA through his first 44 big-league innings, though his 21.6 percent strikeout rate, 9.1 percent walk rate and 41.2 percent groundball rate are all worse than league average, leading to a poor 4.96 xFIP. This appears to be just a spot start for the 26-year-old, though he should remain one of the team's top options whenever an additional starter is needed.
