Julio Urías continues to prove he's one pitcher who is impossible to ignore
added an RBI single — Urías cruised through another confident, composed performance to help the team lower its magic number to clinch the National League West to four.
He gave up a pair of Manny Machado solo home runs, but Urías barely yielded a well-struck ball to anyone else, finishing with as many strikeouts as hits surrendered . Freddie Freeman celebrates after hitting a two-run home run against the Padres in the seventh inning Saturday.Urías maintained possession of the league lead in earned-run average, finishing with a 2.30 mark that continues to top his closest competitors: Miami’s Sandy Alcantara, Atlanta’s Max Fried and Arizona’s Zac Gallen.
Does Urías feel he deserves serious consideration in the Cy Young Award, for which Alcantara is the favorite but the rest of the field remains relatively open?Dodgers players aren’t sure what to make of the 2023 MLB defensive shift ban since it can both benefit and hinder them. Dave Roberts is on board, though.
“It’s hard to ignore what this guy does for a championship-caliber ballclub,” Roberts said. “He wasn’t an All-Star this year for some ridiculous reason. So to be able to be in that Cy Young conversation, I think that’s the floor.” In his last 10 starts, he has given up just nine runs in 63 innings . He has struck out 58 batters while walking only 14. And he has benefited from a consistent uptick in fastball velocity, something pitching coach Mark Prior believes has better complemented his off-speed pitches.
