Los Angeles Dodgers pitching prospect Dennis Santana (shoulder) will make a rehab start for Single-A Rancho Cucamonga on Friday, according to a source. Santana has thrown just 49 2/3 innings on the season over 10 starts between Double-A Tulsa and Triple-A Oklahoma City this year due to injury, but he's sporting a nice 2.54 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 65 strikeouts. If Santana joins the Dodgers to close out the year, it'll be in a relief role.

The Los Angeles Dodgers had high hopes for young pitching prospect Dennis Santana (lat, shoulder), but they will have to wait a little longer to see how the 22-year-old fares in his first major league start. After being scratched from a scheduled start on Thursday, an MRI has revealed a small tear in his right lat muscle. The team also mentioned something about a rotator cuff strain, so we're not exactly sure if there are two separate injuries or if someone misspoke. Santana hits the 10-day disabled list, retroactive to June 5, but could very well be on it longer than that.

Santana is dealing with right rotator cuff strain, and he'll likely require a stint on the disabled list, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

Young Los Angeles Dodgers pitching prospect Dennis Santana (lat) was set to make his first MLB start on Thursday afternoon until Dodgers manager Dave Roberts scratched him at the last minute. The team said it was "right lat soreness," but Santana will undergo an MRI when the team returns to Los Angeles on Friday. The Dodgers clearly have hopes that Santana will develop into a quality starting pitcher -- and he was pretty good in the minors -- but his only major league action so far was not promising -- a relief drubbing last week against the Rockies. We will update the MRI results when they are available. A disabled list stint is possible.

The Los Angeles Dodgers were set to hand Dennis Santana his first major league start on Thursday, but manager Dave Roberts pulled him at the last possible minute when he noticed he was having problems throwing his slider during pre-game warmups. Daniel Hudson took his place as the starter, but the Dodgers are calling Santana "day-to-day" with right lat soreness. Hopefully it's nothing major for the 22-year-old, who put up excellent numbers for Oklahoma City and Tulsa in the minor leagues this year but was roughed up in a long-relief appearance last week, giving up five earned runs in just 3 2/3 innings.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Dennis Santana will make his first MLB start on Thursday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Santana basically started on Friday, but Scott Alexander technically pitched to open the game. Santana allowed five runs over 3 2/3 innings but is looking for better results on Thursday. He should be left on the waiver wire in basically every league. Deep league owners who are desperate for pitching might want to consider him, but there are likely better options available.

Los Angeles Dodgers pitching prospect Dennis Santana will make his first MLB start Thursday against the Pirates. Santana has been dominant in the minors so far this season and despite and 1-3 record, his ERA sits at 2.54 and has struck out 65 batters in just 49 2/3 innings. It is unknown how long Santana will be up and in the rotation for the Dodgers, but their rotation is currently in shambles with so many players on the DL and he is worth a speculative add.
