The Dodgers have tried to avoid starting pitchers on four days' rest all season. The extra day gives Flaherty's wrist another day to recover after taking a comebacker off it Tuesday night against the Baltimore Orioles.
According to manager Dave Roberts, Flaherty's wrist was sore on Wednesday, but the swelling was minimal. It's not expected to impact his availability for Monday's start.
Justin Wrobleski is lined up to start Sunday for Triple-A Oklahoma City and would appear to be the most likely candidate to start the game.
Jack Flaherty on how he felt after being hit by a comebacker: "I wouldn't have kept pitching if things felt bad... overall just two pitches that I'd really like back that they put good swings on."
