What It Means:

Tony Gonsolin will start in place of Kershaw on Tuesday as the Dodgers try to avoid falling into an 0-2 hole. Kershaw didn't appear to be bothered by any back issues while making two starts during the Dodgers' first two playoff rounds, but the 32-year-old left-hander has dealt with a myriad of back problems over his career. The Dodgers are reportedly optimistic that Kershaw will be available by Game 4 of the NLCS. Gonsolin finished the regular season with a 2.31 ERA in nine appearances.

numberFire's models expect Gonsolin to score 28.6 FanDuel points in Game 2. He has a salary of $7,900.
