Feb 21, 2025; Mesa, Arizona, USA; Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Tony Gonsolin (26) warms up during the first inning against the Chicago Cubs at Sloan Park. Mandatory Credit: Rick Scuteri-Imagn Images Twenty months after he last pitched in a major league game, Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tony Gonsolin essentially will pick up right where he left off.
Gonsolin will face the visiting Miami Marlins on Wednesday afternoon in the finale of a three-game series after completing a long recovery from Tommy John surgery. The former All-Star was pitching against the Marlins on Aug. 18, 2023, when he departed following a rough 3 1/3 innings. He was later diagnosed with an elbow injury that ultimately led to the operation.
While extending a four-game winning streak would seem to be the team’s goal Wednesday, the Dodgers merely are hoping Gonsolin can show he is healthy again and capable of building up to longer starts as soon as possible.
The Dodgers lead the majors in innings pitched by relievers, and they just took down the Marlins with a bullpen game, winning 15-2 on Tuesday. Left-hander Jack Dreyer contributed two innings at the outset, and Matt Sauer fired five innings of one-run ball to earn his first major league win after he was called up from the minors earlier in the day.
With starters Blake Snell, Tyler Glasnow and Clayton Kershaw on the injured list, and the remaining rotation members turning in a few ineffective outings, the bullpen has dealt with a heavy workload.
“We thought our starters would be a position of strength for us from a workload standpoint, and unfortunately we lead all of baseball in innings for relievers,” Dodgers pitching coach Mark Prior said. “Sometimes that’s a good thing, but this early in the year, it’s probably not a good thing.”
Gonsolin has made two career starts against the Marlins, going 0-1 with a 10.38 ERA. He gave up 10 runs in 3 1/3 innings versus Miami in his final start of 2023.
The Marlins will counter with right-hander Cal Quantrill (2-2, 7.83 ERA), who has given up 11 combined runs in 9 1/3 innings over his past two starts. However, he earned a road win on Friday against the Seattle Mariners when he gave up four runs in 5 2/3 innings.
Quantrill’s history against the Dodgers has been less than optimal: 1-6 with an 8.05 ERA in eight appearances (seven starts).
He doesn’t figure to get a break, as Los Angeles is finding some offensive consistency of late. Since getting shut out by Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday, the Dodgers have scored at least seven runs in each contest during their four-game winning streak, amassing 39 runs in all.
The Marlins hope their offense will see a bounce-back effort from rookie catcher Agustin Ramirez. After going 9-for-19 (.474) with three home runs in the initial five games of his major league career last week, Ramirez has gone 0-for-8 in the first two games of the series against the Dodgers.
“You’re never sure how a young hitter is going to handle the first time being up here,” Marlins manager Clayton McCullough said of Ramirez, who has struck out just three times in 27 at-bats. “I’ve been as impressed with the quality of the contact as what he’s swinging at.”

The biggest roster need for all 32 NFL teams: Cowboys have WR hole to fill
Ralph Vacchiano NFL Reporter <!--> Billions of dollars in contracts were handed out in NFL free agency. Then 257 players were selected last weekend during the 2025 NFL Draft, before hundreds more were signed as undrafted free agents.Yet somehow, despite all that, none of the 32 NFL teams did everything they needed to do.With the team-building part of the NFL offseason basically over, every single team still has some holes to fill. There are a few lingering veteran free agents who could help and there’s always the chance of a training camp surprise from an unexpected player.

Satoranský pomohl Barceloně k první výhře nad Monakem ve čtvrtfinále Euroligy
Satoranský byl s 32:30 minutami na hřišti jasně nejvytíženějším hráčem domácích a pomohl odvrátit první hrozbu vyřazení šesti body, sedmi asistencemi a třemi doskoky. Pivot Jan Veselý, jenž nedohrál páteční druhý duel v Monaku, do dnešního utkání kvůli problémům se zády nenastoupil.Pravděpodobně rozhodující náskok získala Barcelona už na začátku druhé čtvrtiny, kdy nedovolila pět a půl minuty soupeři skórovat a šňůrou 17-0 odskočila do vedení o 14 bodů.Čtvrtfinále Evropské ligy basketbalistů - 3. zápasy:Barcelona - Monako 100:89 (za domácí SATORANSKÝ 6 bodů, 7 asistencí a 3 doskoky), stav série 1:2
Rizek elege melhor protesto do futebol brasileiro contra arbitragem: “Com sobras”
André Rizek, apresentador do SporTV (Reprodução/SporTV) André Rizek repercutiu um dos lances mais polêmicos da noite de ontem (29), em partida válida pela ida da 3ª fase da Copa do Brasil. No duelo entre Maringá e Atlético-MG no Estádio Willie Davids, o vice-campeão paranaense reclamou de um pênalti não-marcado aos 44 minutos do segundo tempo. Logo após o atleticano Cuello puxar a camisa de Gustavo Vilar dentro da área, o VAR recomendou a revisão no monitor ao árbitro Denis da Silva Ribeiro Serafim. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADE Entretanto, o juiz interpretou que foi um lance normal sem interferência na jogada, não assinalando a penalidade máxima a favor do Dogão.

Who are MLB’s highest-paid players at each position?
<!--> First, it was Shohei Ohtani’s record $700 million contract. Then, Juan Soto topped that just one year later with a $765 million deal. Not all MLB contracts are like those two, but not all players are like that pair, either.Still, there is a ton of money floating around for the very best that the league has to offer, and for all the excitement of (comparatively inexpensive) youth that permeates MLB action each year, the cornerstones of so many teams remain these proven veterans who can keep up with or straight-up surpass that next generation. For a price, of course.Then again, Soto is still young — he’s still just 26, as is Vladimir Guerrero Jr., whose $500 million extension signed earlier this spring kicks in next year.

Ex-BVB-Trainer bereit – Terzic lauert auf diesen England-Klub

Er ist aber auch der Ex-Trainer des Vereins, den er 2023 fast zur Meisterschaft und 2024 ins Finale der Champions League führte.

Ancelotti, described by voices at the CBF as “the dream of the president” Ednaldo Rodrigues, has been the main candidate to replace the sacked Dorival Junior in a list on which Al Hilal’s Jorge Jesus has always featured highly.AdvertisementIn recent weeks, the CBF has sent two emissaries to hold talks with Ancelotti. Those progressed to the point where Ancelotti agreed to lead Brazil in their matches in June and initially until after the 2026 World Cup, according […]
