As the MLB postseason approaches, several teams are finalizing their pitching rotations. The San Diego Padres are expected to include Michael King, Dylan Cease, and Joe Musgrove in their Wild Card series, following a strong performance from rookie Randy Vasquez. The Los Angeles Dodgers are evaluating their pitching options, with Ben Casparius replaced by Justin Wrobleski, who still needs more development before potentially contributing in October. Meanwhile, the Arizona Diamondbacks have made strategic roster changes and are in a crucial race against the San Francisco Giants, while the New York Yankees clinched the AL East. The Atlanta Braves face scheduling challenges due to inclement weather, forcing them to make tough decisions about their pitching lineup. Lastly, the Milwaukee Brewers are adjusting their bullpen ahead of the Wild Card Series, reinstating Nick Mears while optioning Kevin Herget to Triple-A, as they prepare for postseason play.
