Drohan is slated to start Sunday's game against the Rockies at Coors Field.

Drohan will be making his second straight turn through the rotation after most recently striking out five batters while yielding two earned runs on four hits and two walks across four innings in a start Monday against the Giants. Since he had previously been working out of the bullpen, Drohan was lifted after tossing 68 pitches in Monday's start, but he should have a little bit longer leash Sunday.

Iglesias notched a save in Friday's win over the Pirates. He tossed a scoreless ninth inning while allowing a hit and a walk, striking out one.

Iglesias has been one of the best closers in the majors this season and has gone 12-for-12 in save chances thus far. This time, he needed 19 pitches (12 strikes) to get the job done while holding a three-run lead, though he did allow two hitters to get on base. Iglesias has given up just two runs all season long, posting a 0.92 ERA and 0.97 WHIP across 19.2 innings in 19 outings in 2026.

Gough (elbow) has struck out eight batters and allowed one earned run on four hits and one walk across 8.1 innings in his two starts since being reinstated from Single-A Ontario's 7-day injured list May 28.

Acquired from the Mariners in November, Gough didn't make his Dodgers organizational debut until mid-May while he completed his recovery from September 2024 Tommy John surgery. After making two rehab starts in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League, Gough received the green light to join Ontario. The 22-year-old has delivered an impressive pair of starts for Ontario thus far and could get a promotion to High-A Great Lakes before long.

Freeman went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 1-0 win over the Angels.

Freeman delivered a walk-off blast against Kirby Yates in the ninth inning in a game that was lacking in offense. Freeman has hit safely in nine of his last 11 contests, going 15-for-44 (.341) with four homers and 12 RBI in that span. On the year, the first baseman is batting .276 with an .838 OPS, 10 homers, 35 RBI, 32 runs scored, two stolen bases, 15 doubles and a triple over 61 games. His ratios have slipped a bit overall, but he's currently trending up.

Sasaki allowed two hits and two walks while striking out 10 over seven shutout innings in a no-decision Friday versus the Angels.

Sasaki had his best start of the season, but a rare quiet showing from the Dodgers' bats kept him from earning the win. He's been on a roll lately, allowing just five runs (four earned) with a 29:5 K:BB over 24.1 innings across his last four starts. Overall, Sasaki is at a 4.03 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 60:21 K:BB through 58 innings over 11 starts. His next start is projected to be on the road versus the White Sox.

Groover went 0-for-4 in Friday's 14-1 loss to the Nationals in his major-league debut.

Groover is set for a short-side platoon role as a corner infielder. The 24-year-old hit .322 with an .873 OPS, three home runs, 39 RBI, 37 runs scored, 16 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 56 games prior to his call-up. Groover could challenge Ildemaro Vargas for playing time at first base, and he also offers some cover at third if Nolan Arenado needs to rest his legs.

Garcia went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 14-1 loss to the Nationals.

Garcia went deep in the third inning, but that was all the scoring the Diamondbacks could muster. He has seen limited playing time since he was called up from Triple-A Reno on May 19, going 2-for-14 over four games during this stint in the big leagues. He's batting .176 with one homer, two RBI and two runs scored over 17 plate appearances in the majors this season.

Kelly (5-4) allowed seven runs on six hits, three walks and a hit batsman while striking out four over five innings to take the loss versus the Nationals on Friday.

Kelly had a strong May, but his first start in June was a dud. He allowed three home runs, which accounted for four of the seven runs on his line in his first loss since May 3 versus the Cubs. Kelly is now at a 5.71 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 37:25 K:BB through 58.1 innings over 10 starts this season. His next start is projected to be on the road versus the Marlins.

Lile went 3-for-6 with a solo home run, a second RBI, a stolen base and two total runs scored in Friday's 14-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

Lile has gone 6-for-17 over the first four games of June. His homer Friday ended a stretch of nine contests without an extra-base hit, in which he went 5-for-34 (.147) with two RBI. While the bat hasn't been all that consistent, Lile is gaining playing time in left field, pushing Dylan Crews and Jacob Young to compete for one spot in the lineup most of the time. Lile is batting .256 with a .725 OPS, eight homers, 30 RBI, 38 runs scored, five steals, 15 doubles and one triple through 63 games this year.

Abrams went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, two walks and two total runs scored in Friday's 14-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

Abrams had gone six games without an RBI prior to Friday, though he hit safely in four of them. The shortstop has gone 11-for-36 (.306) with four extra-base hits and two stolen bases over his last 10 contests. For the season, he's batting .291 with a .922 OPS, 13 homers, 48 RBI, 40 runs scored, nine steals, 13 doubles and two triples over 63 games.
