NLDS notes: Emmet Sheehan, Blake Treinen, Josue De Paula

Ahead of their opening playoff series against the Braves, the Dodgers finalized a pitching staff featuring left-handers Tarik Skubal and Blake Snell, alongside relievers Tanner Scott, Alex Vesia, and Kris Bubic, while leaving off Justin Wrobleski and Jack Dreyer. Front office executive Andrew Friedman praised the exceptional volume and depth of the current roster.

Meanwhile, Emmet Sheehan threw a simulated session at Dodger Stadium on Friday to stay prepared for a possible roster inclusion later in October once his minor league assignment window concludes, having posted stellar minor league numbers recently. Veteran right-hander Blake Treinen is currently recovering from right shoulder inflammation that sidelined him on the final day of the regular season, though team management has not ruled out a potential return later in the postseason.
