The first-time All-Star Game participants are not only part of the franchise’s rich pitching history but products of a system where coaches listen before suggesting.
LOS ANGELES — What were the odds, when the 2022 season began, that Tony Gonsolin and Tyler Anderson would be spending Monday of the All-Star break in Dodger Stadium, surrounded by inquisitors, talking about an All-Star Game in which they might participate?Gonsolin is 11-0, the only undefeated starter left in baseball, and he’s fourth in the game in ERA and second in WHIP .
The Dodgers signed him after the lockout for one year at $8 million, $5.5 million more than he’d earned in 2021 on a free agent contract he had signed with the Pirates. Somebody obviously saw something that could be unlocked, and in fact, Anderson’s changeup has turned out to be a significant weapon in 2022.
“And so I went into spring kind of searching for that and then talking to the guys, to my surprise, I felt like they more wanted to see what I do and see the way that I prepare and see how I pitch. … They’re very open and they want you to be yourself and be the player that you are. And they didn’t really want to change a whole lot, which is kind of reassuring, you know, that they think that the way you are is pretty good.
