Jose De Leon

Dodgers may debut Jose De Leon this weekend

Los Angeles Dodgers pitching prospect Jose De Leon was scratched from his scheduled start with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday.

What It Means:

The Dodgers haven't named their starters for Saturday or Sunday's contest against the San Diego Padres, so De Leon is the presumed starter.

The top prospect has been dominant for Oklahoma City this season, evidenced by a 2.61 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 32.5 strikeout percentage across 86 1/3 innings of work.
