Dodgers pitcher Joe Wieland is the leading candidate to replace Hyun-Jin Ryu (shoulder) in the starting rotation while Ryu remains sidelined, the Los Angeles Times reports.
Wieland has allowed one run in nine innings this spring while striking out nine. Other options include Mike Bolsinger and Carlos Frias, and the team could fill the rotation hole externally, as the Dodgers remain open to acquiring starting pitching depth for the back end of the rotation.
